Lisinopril has been in the news for brain inflammation before.
Some of the ACE inhibitors do not cross the blood brain barrier. But Lisinpril does. I saw a study suggesting that the ACE inhibitors may also reduce Alzheimer's onset.

It is also unique in that it is not metabolized by the liver and hence does not interfere with other drug metabolism.

It can however cause dizziness. In low doses this is less common. But in the higher ones, if it occurs it might be best to take at night.

I use lisinopril myself for blood pressure control.

I personally don't see anything wrong with your post.
You linked the to article correctly and did a good job.
