At 6 months, the incidence rate for the combined end-point remained lower than with control (a 6.2% reduction). The GISSI-3 results concur with those from recent large investigations (ISIS-4, CCS-1, SMILE) of other ACE inhibitors as early management in myocardial infarction. However, the ...
An 85-year-old man developed profoundweakness, a blood pressure of 60/32mmHg, and a heart rate of 37/minute after taking three doses of tizanidine for 2 days in addition to chlorpromazine,citalopram, finasteride, lidocaine patches, lisinopril,metformin,pramipexole,omeprazole,simvastatin,theophylline,...
Heart rate was not altered significantly by either lisinopril or placebo treatment. The addition of lisinopril to treatment with atenolol produced a slight increase in the reported number of adverse events compared with placebo. The results of this study indicate that the addition of lisinopril 10-...
