High Blood Pressure
"I suffer from alcoholism binges and take atenolol, clonidine, and amloapine, as well as OTC vitamins on a daily basis. When my doctor&#039;s intern added a prescription for Lisinopril (10 mg x1 a day) it was the first time in 25 years of drinking that I had a case of Delirium Tremens (very nasty and horrifying experience). I have had alcohol withdrawal symptoms may times before and had to go to the ER a few times for a few hours while they detoxed me. But this was like nothing I have ever experienced. I couldn&#039;t stand up without falling over, and had to get around on my hands and knees. I would normally take a cab to the ER, but I wouldn&#039;t even make it to the cab. Had to call 911 for paramedics to the tune of $1250.00. No more Lisinopril for me."
