I took lotrel a few years ago after trying verapamil a calcium channel blocker the ccb made unable to exercise, I was taking avapro at the time too, but the ccb seemed to make me unable to hardly walk let alone hike trails without having to stop to catch my breath all the time, or sit down because I felt like I would collapse if I didn't.
but then the lotrel did the same thing, I thought it was the ccb, but now that I take an ace inhibitor lisinopril 10 mg I am finding myself doing the same thing getting way out of breath for what used to be a breeze and having to take frequent breaks, the altace didn't seem to do that but it is more expensive but if this med doesn't stop interfereing with my exercise I will probably have to go back to altace or try something different.
or maybe the doctor can advise me on another ace inhibitor that will not make me get so out of breath, I adjusted to the beta blocker torprol 100 mg adn was able to walk/jog with little fatigue compared with lisinopril and altace.
