I’ve been taking Lisinopril 10mg for high BP for several months but I took my bp and now it was 82/58, so I took it again and it was 96/60. Should I stop taking it altogether or just skip a dose if it’s low and start to monitor it daily?
If my BP is really low should I stop taking my high BP meds?

I'd say ask your doctor to adjust your prescription. Suddenly stopping can cause spikes as I understand it...

Your blood pressure is probably lower because you are taking the medication. DON'T mess with your blood pressure, please contact your doctor for advice, not a forum. I am sure you are doing fine.

I recommend you speak with your doctor about your BP. Low BP can cause Dizziness or lightheadedness. Fainting (syncope) Blurred vision. Hope this helps.
