Does Lisinopril Cause Muscle Weakness?
My boyfriend has been taking Lisinopril for about 3 years but since he had hernia surgery about 3 months ago he says he s been experiencing muscle weakness. He was taking taking 2 blood pressure meds prior to the surgery and his doctor reduce him back to just Lisinopril only and his blood pressure has been good. Should I be concern about his muscle weakness and it worsting? Could it be being cause by the Lisinopril med?

No, lisinopril is nothing to do with muscle weakness, muscle weakness might be due to lack of exercise
