Practical advice

Lisinopril and Liraglutide can be used together. Monitor blood glucose more frequently when starting this combination. Know the signs of hypoglycemia: shakiness, sweating, confusion, rapid heartbeat. Keep glucose tablets accessible.

Timing

ACE inhibitors provide kidney protection in diabetes — a synergistic combination. Take each at their prescribed times. ACE inhibitors can occasionally enhance hypoglycemic effects — monitor blood sugar when starting or changing doses.

Risk factors

Higher risk for: elderly, those with renal impairment, irregular meal schedules, concurrent alcohol use, recent dose changes, history of hypoglycemic episodes, or those on insulin plus oral hypoglycemics.

Symptoms to watch for

Monitor blood sugar closely when combining Lisinopril with Liraglutide. Watch for signs of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia): shakiness, sweating, rapid heartbeat, hunger, dizziness, irritability, confusion, or blurred vision. Also monitor for high blood sugar: increased thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, or fruity-smelling breath. Keep fast-acting glucose (juice, glucose tablets) readily available. When to seek emergency help: Severe confusion, loss of consciousness, seizures, or blood sugar below 54 mg/dL that does not respond to treatment. Inform your prescriber about all medications to adjust diabetes medication doses if needed.

What to tell your doctor

No urgent need to discuss, but always keep your doctor informed of your full supplement and medication list. Say: "I take Lisinopril and Liraglutide — is that OK?"
