How Long Does Lisinopril Take To Bring Down Blood Pressure Level?

I just went on Lisinipril 10mg for BP of 169/78. How long before the medicine begins to lower the top number? Also, I have sinus bradycardia one. My resting heart rate is 42 bpm. I am a very active exerciser and can get my HR to 152. My one minute HR will decrease to 106. Does the bradycardia have anything to do with my blood pressure issue?
