These agents aren't known to cause kidney stones. Most kidney stones in the US are caused by our diet which is rich in meat protein. Calcium supplementation does increase the risk of kidney stones. As far as the blood pressure goes, he should probably have his dose of the lisinopril reduced. Alternatively, there are other agents such as calcium channel blockers, beta blockers or Angiotensine receptor blockers that can also be tried. I would probably avoid diuretics at this point.
one more thing to consider....
Have you notified your husbands doctor about the kidney stones??? It is important that he is aware of any altered renal function (renal = kidney) while prescribing Zestril.
Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor, which works on your kidneys to reduce blood pressure by preventing an enzyme that converts angio-tensin1 into angiotensin2. Angiotensin2 is a strong vasoconstrictor. ACE-inhibitors prevent that vasoconstrictor (narrowing of blood vessels and causing higher blood pressure) from being produced, thereby vasodilation (widening of blood vessels so the pressure within the vessel is lower) occurs. Hot weather also dilates blood vessel naturally so when he takes his meds and goes out in the heat, it is important for him to continue to drink a lot of fluids. Hypovolemia (low blood volume) due to diaphoresis (extreme sweating) could cause hypokalemia (low potassium) and hyponatremia (low Sodium). One of the primary S/S (signs and symptoms) of low sodium is confusion which could be felt as being "lightheaded." In the human body, water always follows salt. So if he is sweating out water, then he is sweating out sodium, and needs to replace that sodium loss consistently to avoid light headedness. Consequently if he is losing a lot of water via perspiration, then he is losing his fluid volume, which will lower his blood pressure, because low volume means low pressure. If he is not experiencing heart palpitations, which can be caused by low potassium, then I would just suggest drinking gatorade while playing golf.
Also, is he on a low sodium diet? If so, then that would further put him at risk for hyponatermia. Is he on a diuretic? Stress the importance of staying well hydrated when he is out in the hot weather. N/V is a cardinal sign of heat exhaustion which can lead to heat stroke.
Chronic dehydration can cause renal calculi (kidney stones) to become more present, however, what kind of kidney stones were they? Does your husband take calcium supplements? Eat a lot of protein? Remember to save your kidney stones and bring them to your doctor so that they can examine them to determine whether they are uric acid, calcium, etc... Overall I think a lot of what is going on with him can be treated with adequate fluid replacement.
Hope this helps
