The short answer is NO. Lisinopril is a medication that belongs to a family of drugs called ACE Inhibitors. This is because they exert their primary mechanism on the cardiovascular system by inhibiting angiotensin converting enzyme, interfering w/ conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, thereby reducing blood pressure which is it's primary use. It's also given to patients suffering from CHI (Congestive Heart Failure). Benzos on the other hand bind to benzo receptors in the brain and depending on the particular benzo being used causes sedation, hypnosis and can have an anticonvulsant effect. Hope that answers your question.

Can Lorazepam and Lisinopril and Citalopram kill you?

While Lorazepam, Lisinopril, and Citalopram are generally safe when taken as prescribed, combining them or taking them inappropriately can pose serious health risks. Lorazepam is a benzodiazepine that can cause respiratory depression, especially when mixed with other sedatives. Lisinopril is an antihypertensive that can lead to severe hypotension if not monitored properly, while Citalopram, an antidepressant, carries risks of serotonin syndrome and other complications. Always consult a healthcare professional before making any changes to your medication regimen.
