lisinopril to protect the kidneys?
by pgdiver, Jul 02, 2008 09:05PM
I just returned from my first appt w/ my new Dr. She says that I should be on lisinopril "to protect my kidneys". I have had diabetes for 35 years and never had a test come back indicating that I am "spilling protiens". My BP is 104/70
A1c is about 7.3.Very good health, no heart problems etc. Is this just a standard/ routine prescription for diabetics now...like aspirin?

You should ask for Doctor signs that the Lisinopril might be having an adverse reaction though.
