I've been on Lisinopril 20mg for several years (probably around five,
but I've forgotten when I started), but never in combination with
HCTZ--my other prescription meds are Lipitor 80mg (7+ years) and
atenolol 12.5mg (about 5 years). No problems with any of the three,
liver tests are clean, and I remain physically active (age 77).

I know a negative report may not help much, but it may help you focus
your search for the trigger.

Good luck.
