You should notice in a day or two. Longer soaks are better than short ones.

When I was having my lupus reaction to lisinopril, I was having huge muscle contractions in the night...enough to make the bed shake and my covers move. These were not twitches and they didn't hurt either. At first I thought it was our cats playing on the bed, but I never saw or heard them. They were large muscles moving, like in the back and thighs.

I did have a spot in my lower left calf that usually twitched in the mornings, or during fasts for doctor tests. My doctor told me that was a low blood sugar twitch (she observed it one time). But it has gone away as well, since I stopped the evil lisinopril 2 months ago.

Hypoglycemia can cause twitching of muscles.
