Hello everyone,
Another alternative for those of you who want to stop smoking is "Wellbutrin." Now, it doesn't work over night but it is a great alternative. Still, the most important aspect for anyone to stop is to mentally prepare for it. That is the hard part.

in Medication – Prescription Drugs-Health Issues

Hello Pete,
Cough is a common side effect for ACE inhibitors and Lisinopril falls into that category. Cozar is a great drug to switch to and falls into a different category of drugs (ARBS). That should do the trick in treating your hypertension (HTN). Keep in mind, I do not know your history, etc. Normally, if your blood pressure needs a little more help, they may add a diuretic component. Still, it is one pill,,, Hyzar ---(Cozar + Hydrochlorothiazide).
Celexa is also a good drug for mood disorders (a wide range of things falls under this category ). A common side affect for this is a decrease in libido. Stomache aches, etc. are also a side effect of this drugs. But, if you are okay with this drug,,, continue with it. ;-)
Good health to ya,
Tayo
