Question: is lisinopril safe for kidney disease?
Answer: Lisinopril is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. ACE-inhibitors are used in chronic kidney disease (CKD) to protect kidneys, slow progression of CKD and to treat protein in the urine. Hence, Lisinopril is generally a safe and effective treatment of CKD. It must be monitored carefully by your doctor.
