    If you want an alternative to these drugs, I suggest that you speak to your doctor. Both of these drugs are prescribed for SERIOUS conditions. DO NOT BE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO THINK THAT THERE IS AN HERBAL ALTERNATIVE.
    THE HERBAL FORMULAS ARE NOT TESTED BY THE FDA AND YOU CANNOT TRUST THEIR EFFICACY. YOU HAVE TO WATCH OUT.

    G’luck. Auld Lang Syne! Bon Voyage!

    I take Lisinopril NOW and used to take Spironolactone. Not as often as I should, though..

    There are some home remedies for high blood pressure if that’s what you have.

    WARNING! Any and all drugs ending in -one:
    Do not use salt substitutes or low-sodium milk products that contain potassium. These products could cause your potassium levels to get too high while you are taking spironolactone.

    Also: no grapefruit juice.
