Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 It's hard for me to cough because, like you, I don't have the power in my lungs to cough easily. I don't know how to explain it properly but I think you understand. Atenolol is a beta blocker like Lisinopril. That's why they both have the same side effect of the cough. It still seems strange to me to cough from a bp pill:)hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

I have a chronic cough due to inflammation in my lungs. It was only when the doctor wanted me to increase to 50 mg, did the cough get worse. Once, I went back to 25, my cough is more or less normal. It gets really weird when the pulmonologist wants me to use the inhaled steroids. My lungs get really weak and even when I feel like I have to cough, I don't have the strength to do it.
