I am convinced that this is the Rx that is causing my joint pain. I also take Metoprolol Tart Tab 25.twice daily and Pradaxa 150 mg. twice daily. When I quit taking the Enalapril 10mg. The pain in my joints(mainly in my knees) goes away and when I start up again, it comes back. I have stopped 3 times in the last year. The results are the same. It has been increasingly painful the longer I take it. I can not get up off of a chair or stool and have trouble walking. Some nights I hurt so badly that I don't sleep at all. I stopped taking it for only two days and was able to play golf without pain. My doctors does not approve of me stopping the drug but does not offer a substitute. Read More Read Less

Coughing, post nasal drip, after being on this for 6 weeks and not sleeping for 5 weeks because of a constant cough. I saw my doctor and she changed my medication. Question, if they know this causes this in women then why prescribe it?

After 10+ years of taking 10 mg twice daily, then recently having it increased to 20 mg twice daily, it seems to lack effectual influence on my blood pressure on the systolic side. The dyastolic reading seems to be in acceptable ranges.
