(iv) a means for providing a sweet taste for the oral liquid formulation;
wherein the pH of the formulation is between about 4 and about 8;
wherein the formulation is stable at about 25+5° C. for at least 6 months.
2. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the lisinopril is lisinopril dihydrate.
3. The formulation of claim 1 , comprising the lisinopril at about 1 mg/ml or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
4. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the pH is between about 4 to about 5.2.
5. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the lisinopril or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof functions as a buffer.
6. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the formulation is stable at about 25±5° C. for at least 12 months.
7. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the formulation is stable at about 25±5° C. for at least 18 months.

9. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the means for providing a sweet taste is a sweetener selected from xylitol, mannitol, sorbitol, glycerin, maltitol, sucrose, aspartame sucralose, saccharin, acesulfame, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and combinations thereof.
10. An oral liquid formulation, comprising:
(i) lisinopril or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof;
(ii) a means for providing anti-microbial activity in the oral liquid formulation;
(iii) a liquid vehicle, wherein the liquid vehicle comprises water;
(iv) a sweetener, wherein the sweetener comprises xylitol, mannitol, sorbitol, glycerin, maltitol, sucrose, aspartame sucralose, saccharin, acesulfame, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and
wherein the pH of the formulation is between about 4 and about 8;
wherein the formulation is stable at about 25±5° C. for at least 6 months.
11. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the lisinopril is lisinopril dihydrate.
12. The formulation of claim 10 , comprising the lisinopril at about 1 mg/ml or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
13. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the sweetener is xylitol or sucralose.
14. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the lisinopril or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof functions as a buffer.
15. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the pH is between about 5 to about 8.
16. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the pH is between about 4 to about 5.2.
17. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the formulation is stable at about 25±5° C. for at least 12 months.
18. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the formulation is stable at about 25±5° C. for at least 18 months.
19. The formulation of claim 10 , wherein the means for providing anti-microbial activity is a preservative selected from sodium benzoate, benzoic acid, asorbic acid, methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, a pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and combinations thereof.
