Lisinopril And Headaches

05/28/07 #5 - Lisionopril and Diamox effective for Migraine with vestibular manifestations?

By Ask the Clinician Health Expert

Full Question:
Are Lisinopril and Diamox effective in treating migraines with vestibular manifestations? Sue.

 


Answer:

Dear Sue;

Diamox can be helpful for vestibular manifestations of headaches, Migraines, and other clinical problems.  I am not aware of any literature that suggests Lisinopril would have similar properties.  In fact, I searched this and there were no published studies.

Good luck,
John Claude Krusz and Teri Robert
