i have been on monopril(fosinopril) for many years- and it also helps to protect the kidneys. since starting Tx my BP spiked, and they added Tiazac.
hope this helps, and good luck :)

I take lisinopril. Have had to reduce the dose twice while on the tx. I monitor my bp at home 2x per day because it tends to drop fast as anemia increases and I've wound up in the hospital for hypotension at times. I suggest getting a monitor if you dont already have one. Good luck.
