A:I can't see any reason why it would not be ok to take Apple Cider Vinegar with your medication but I don't believe that it will help to reduce your blood pressure. The claims that it lowers blood pressure are based on the fact that it contains potassium - which is shown to reduce blood pressure. However the amount it contains is less than you would find in a banana so I doubt it has much effect. You can try increasing the amount of exercise you do or reducing the amount of salt in your diet.

A:First, I hope the physician treating you has already ruled out secondary causes of hypertension. The reason being is that you are very young, sounds like you are in shape, and I don't know your family history. Some secondary causes are: renal artery stenosis, pheocytochroma, cushings, etc. Now to answer your question, lisinopril is better known to stabilize blood pressure than cause hypotension (very low blood pressure). Think of it as a medication that controls it from going up by stopping something in your blood. It is likely OK to take both, but as always, monitor you blood pressure regularly and watch for signs of hypotension (low blood pressure). Addendum: Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) usually comes in 12.5, 25, & 50. My guess is that you are on 25. Lisinopril usually comes in 10, 20, 40, & 80. If you are on the max doses, obviously you are at greater risk of hypotension. If you ever have questions, it is always best to ask your primary or prescribing physician than random people on yahoo answers who have no idea of your history and med dosages.

A:The twitching of the eyelid is not listed as a side effect on these medications, as far as I know. Are you not perhaps stresses at the moment, perhaps about your health or another issue. The twitching will go away. Lovastatin is a statin drug which results in the body's Co-enzyme Q10 level being depleted. This is serious and you may find over time that you have muscle fatigue and or pains. You have to supplement with Co-enzyme Q10 (Co-Q10) at least 100mg per day. The body's biggest user of Co-Q10 is the heart. The gradual depletion of Co-Q10 in the body is one of the side effects of statin drugs, but not really acknowledged by the pharmaceutical companies.
