the technical name is: orthostatic hypotension. you had a good answer already i am merely trying to contribute.
on 40mg lisinopril to get to 120/80. vertigo when standing almost fainting. normal? . hi guys . i have high blood pressure (hbp) normally at 140/120. taking 40mg lisinopril to get down to 120/80. . the problem is i get vertigo when standing. if i do it repeatedly (working on a car/motorcycle) i nearly faint. is this me getting used to the lisinopril. perhaps my body isn't used to dealing with its bp at a normal range. or is there something else going on?
