1. What is SINOPRYL (Lisinopril) and what is it used for?

    SINOPRYL (Lisinopril) belongs to the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE) drug group and contains 20 mg of lisinopril.

    • Lisinopril dilates your blood vessels. This helps lower blood pressure. This also makes it easier for the heart to pump blood around the body.
    SINOPRYL (Lisinopril) is a white, round, scored tablet. Available in blisters containing 30 tablets.
    SINOPRYL (Lisinopril) is used in the following conditions:

    In the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension),

    - In the treatment of heart failure (shortness of breath, swelling in the legs and fatigue after light exercise) caused by the heart's difficulty in pumping blood to your body,

    If you have recently had a heart attack (myocardial infarction) that can weaken your heart, lisinopril will slow this weakening.

    If you have high blood pressure with kidney problems due to diabetes (diabetes). SINOPRYL (Lisinopril) is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in children older than 6 years.
