I can't seem to find it anywhere around here. Maybe I'll try the Sukhumvit area. Seems strange that I could not find it since it's one of the most perscribed treatments fo hypertention. Had no problem finding HTCZ. Do they call it by another name here?

I buy mine at Mr. Medicine on SriNakharin. South of Bangna trad on west side of road across from Carrefour.

Off topic, but I took Lisinopril for several years. Always had a dry hacking cough that nothing could cure. I finally found a doctor who knew that 20% of the people who take Lisinopril have this cough.

He suggested I switch to Cozaar and no more cough!

Cozaar is more expensive, but I only need 50mg per day, so I buy the 100mg pill for around 960 Baht at Fascino and cut them in half with a pill slicer.

Works out to about 16 baht per day.

Whats the name for plendil generic, never ever been offered that before.

In Thailand -- ZESTRIL from Astra-Zeneca. You can find it almost everywhere!

"Whats the name for plendil generic . . . In Thailand -- ZESTRIL"

It appears that you're confusing drug names and that information is incorrect.

Lisinopril ( the OP's original inquiry ) is the same as Zestril and Prinivil

Plendil is a completely different medication, also known generically as Felodipine

The point of the off-topic deviation from the thread was that Lisinopril/Zestril causes a cough in 20% of the people who take it, Plendil apparently does not!

Not post 8. Lisinopril IS Zestril.
