Lisinopril is used for High Blood Pressure. If this is the dosage your doctor has put you on, you need to take it as prescribed. As someone who had a catastrophic event due to my HBP, I urge you not to mess with your blood pressure meds.

If it's scored you can break it. It would be half the dose but you can't if it's not scored.
