Can I Safely Stop Or Adjust My Lisinopril While Taking Sulfamethoxazole / Trimethoprim For 5 Days?

Hello, I was prescribed the antibiotic Sulfamethoxazole/Trimethoprim 800-160 mg. Tablets. I also take Lisinopril 30 mg., which is contraindicated with this antibiotic. Can I discontinue the Lisinopril for the 5 days I’m on the antibiotic, or take it every other day? Thank you!
