   Lisinopril (Accupril) and other meds? ... (Heart Disorders board)

21st June 2006
After a week long hospitalization for a diabetic crisis, I've been put on meds for the diabetes and the atrial fibrillation.

I think the meds are poorly selected but I am just so tired and can't do any research on them.

My primary question is should the Accupril/Lisinopril be taken at morning or at night or does it make no difference?

Other meds are:

Coumadin 7.5mg most nights but 10.0 mg twice a week.
Cardizem (Diltiazem) twice a day despite advertisements saying once a day!
Lopressor originally Rx'd at 50mg 2xday but suddenly refilled as 50mg 1xday!
Insulin (70/30 Novolin) 30units in the morning and 25 units at night.
Furosemide 40mg 2xday.
KCl 2x day.

I seem to go into atrial fibrillation regularly at 2:00am and whenever I bend over to pick something up.

Leg edma seems to have returned so I doubt the furosemide is working despite my occasional use of vitamin C to give the furosemide a boost.

Any comments???
