For a bit of background: I'm 24, at less than a month old I had a coarctation surgery. At age 5, I had an angio plasti performed to remove the excess scar tissue from the surgery. I've been a-ok ever since. I just saw my cardiologist today after not having gone in for 4 years. My blood pressure was significantly higher in my right arm vs left (120/58 left, 165/60 right) This I know could be partially due to where the coartation was, but he prescribed my Benazepril and wants to do an echocardio

Hello. My 13yr old cat was recently diagnosed with CRF. Since he has lost a lot of weight and is down to about 8lbs. I have somewhat been able to stabilize him with nutri cal but he is still skin and bones and needs to gain some back. He is currently on a KD diet, azodyl and benazepril.

i work on benazepril which is ester containing drug .

I was placed on benazepril about 6 weeks ago. I am well aware that ACE inhibitors can cause coughing in some people. My question is what is this cough like? Does it occur constantly throughout the day or intermittently? My cough starts as a tickling sensation in the back of my throat and then is just a hacky little annoying cough. The tickling feeling and intermittent coughing lasts about 5-10 minutes. This occurs maybe 4 or 5 times a day. However, I did have a bit of a cough at times even bef

My cat has recently been diagnosed with CRF. He keeps losing weight fast despite eating well, no throwing up or diarrhea. He currently is on kd diet, benazepril and wellactin (omega 3 fatty acid). The food has helped his lab work but he is losing weight he can't afford to lose. Does anyone know of any supplements/meds to help stop this weight loss? This is really his only problem and is in good spirits. Any information will help! Thanks.

I take an ace inhibitor (benazepril) and my average bp is below 130/80. Without the med it was often 140/90 or higher. But recently I have had it dip down in the 96/56 range. I dont feel dizzy when this happens and am not too worried but just wondering what causes it. I don't drink or smoke and exercise 2 or 3 times a week.

There are no kidney problems. Possible mild heart attack two years ago. Mild left ventricular hypertension. Yes if only consuming water was that simple! It would be the cure all for all hypertensive clients.

I have high blood pressure I'm taking medicine for but my sinus are acting up and I'm taking sinus medicine for it. But when I cough my entire head has an enormous throbbing pain to the point I have to squeeze my head a bit to stop it. I've been to the doctor and he gave me some cough syrup but he said it's the benazepril I'm taking for my high blood that gives me a continuous cough. Should I get a second opinion?

I have been taking benazepril for 7 months and now have abnormal kidney function. If it is caused by ACE inhibitor and I stop taking it will my kidneys recover? How long would it typically take? Lab results: BUN 24, Creatinine 1.24, eGFR 51 (white male) I did not have any kidney problems prior to starting ACE inhibitor, it was strictly for hypertension. Dr appt Monday, just trying to get all the info I can. I really appreciate the info.

I am wondering if there are any interactions between the prescription drug Lotrel (Amlodipine/benazepril), which is a calcium channel blocker combined with a angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor and its potential interactions with the herbal extract Hawthorne. Please cite exact implications and studies showing interactions between these drugs. Other prescription drugs with a similar purpose would be fine compared to Hawthorne also. Just provide all the information you can with resources.

I am having a procedure done and take these medications regularly. the pre prep kit says i must not take any blood thinners the day prior to my procedure... Are these three prescriptions considered blood thinners?

Cardiologist prescribed "Diovan" (blood pressure). Nephrologist prescribed "Benazepril" (blood pressure). Then at the pharmacy we were told that these two medications are not compatible. Is that true? Why?

I know that antidepressants can take up to a month to build up in your system and start working but does Blood Pressure Medication, specifically Benazepril 20mg, need time to build up in your system or does it start working from day one?

Don't tell me to "Go to the doctor" because he is getting his meds from a doctor but this is for my own information.

Hi, I am about to adopt a dog who is on Benazepril for a heart conditions. I was wondering if it is safe to buy the generic, which is much, much cost effective. Is it a good idea to buy generics for dogs? Thank you so much. She would need 20mg/day of Benazpril.

My cat is horrendous when I'm trying to give her pills, so was wanting to crush up her pills and administer them with liquid instead. However, I'm not sure if any of them are time-released: Amlodipine Benazepril Mirtazapine and Pepcid AC. Thanks!

Long story short, I got a 90 day supply of my father's Blood Pressure Medication refilled today. I have one of those "Weekly Pill" cases for his medication and vitamins and I went to refill the weekly case, left the the Benazepril 20mg Tablets on the sink, went in to the living room to get the multivitamins, and when I came back, the pills were in the sink and my cat was on the floor looking guilty. I know... I'm retarded for leaving the open pill bottle on the sink... But I never thought

I have high blood pressure that I need to take medication to control, My problem is the one prescription that was given to me and it is called amlodipine besy- benazepril. is kinda expensive and my insurance does not cover it but when I asked the pharmacist about it he told me to have the Doctor separate the prescription and give me a prescription for each and it would be cheaper.

I have been diagnosed with high blood presssure at 140/90. If I take Benazepril 10mg, how fast (and by how MUCH) will my blood pressure likely be reduced??

Lisinopril 10/12.5 worked great for me for 13yrs. BP started elevating and he started me on Norvasc 5mg. Worked for a week, BP elevated again. Now, he prescribed Amlodipine Benazepril with Triamterene. I have side effects from them all. My BP was still up the first time I took the Amlodipine and it is stated that this medicine can take as long as 2wks to see any effects. I can't tee tee when I take the Triamterene 75/50mg. I can't possibly be retaining that much fluid, I'm skinny as a

My cat is 14 years old (typical american shorthair mixed breed...large male weighing 11 lbs ...but did weigh 15 lbs just last year..he keeps losing weight. He also has had a heart murmor since birth and is neutured) and as of several months ago he has been going downhill bigtime.

In 2005 I took my cat to a new vet, after several visits my cat suddenly turned yellow and I rushed her again to the vet. She was treated and has not been bothered again with jaundice. Then a couple of visits later the vet dianosed my cat with hyper thyroidism and recommended three treatments, one was radiation, two was daily shots and three was daily pills. The radiation was to be the most effective and possible eliminate the problem. The shots and pills were only recommended as a possibl

I'm taking 2 different BP meds, but every time my pressure is checked, the systolic is always high. Any new BP meds available? My cholesterol and body weight are normal. I take 5mg of Benazepril and 5 mg of Amlodipine once a day.

So I went to the doctor about a pain in my head and he said it's likely from my high blood pressure, which is 174/85... He told me to take a daily 10mg dose of a medication called benazepril. I haven't really used medication before and I typically hate the idea of it because it seems unnatural to me. Has anyone else used this and is it safe? I'm sure it's better than having a stroke, but I really don't feel right about putting chemicals in my body. Is there any natural alternative to lowering
