    Somewhat effective at 20mg in lowering pressure readings about 8-10 points both systolic and diastolic. First few months seemed to be sleep inducing. Published: October 21, 2007 ::

    I am in my first week and tired a lot. I seem to be short of breath but that may just be in my mind. Parts of the day my pressure is better than other times. Sometimes I feel wonderful...with lots of energy. I feel less social most of the time unless it is during the time I feel good. Published: February 26, 2008 ::

    I have always had lower blood pressure to a normal reading. Perimenaupause changed all that, it seems like it went high all the sudden. I had an pretty easy time getting adjusted to this medication, sleepy if I laided down, however I welcomed the rest. I had not been resting well at all. Published: January 08, 2008 ::

    I've used this medication and/or it's substitute, Quinapril, for more than twenty years. After a few years I had to use HCTZ in conjunction with it, but I have never had any problems since. My blood pressure has remained stable ever since. Published: December 20, 2008 ::

    blood pressure varies with the season. It's in the 120's in Summer and goes up to the high 140's in cold & snow. Exercize varies as does weight(170 goes to 176 lbs). Needed Bisoprolol also to get BP controlled. Published: January 15, 2009 ::

    Was on Accupril 10mg for 10yrs, then raised up to 20mg the past year. No real side affects, worked on and off. My blood pressure keeps jumping around over the years--so Dr switched me to Lisinopril HTC. I miss accupril--had no side affects.;( Published: December 15, 2008 ::
