Let's memorize from the name itself-
CAPTOPRIL :
C Cough
A Angioedema/ Agranulocytosis
P Proteinuria/ Potassium excess
T Taste changes ( Dysguesia )
O Orthostatic Hypotension
P Pregnancy/ Pancreatitis/ Pressure drop
R Renal failure and Renal Artery stenosis (contraindicated) / Rash

Hope now you won't forget it. ;)
