Avoid getting up too fast from a sitting or lying position, or you may feel dizzy.
Avoid becoming overheated or dehydrated during exercise, in hot weather, or by not drinking enough fluids. Benazepril can decrease sweating and you may be more prone to heat stroke.
Drinking alcohol can further lower your blood pressure and may increase certain side effects of benazepril.
Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes, unless your doctor has told you to.
