Description:
Enalapril (marketed as Renitec and Vasotec) is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used in the treatment of hypertension and some types of chronic heart failure. ACE raises blood pressure by constricting blood vessels. ACE inhibitors like enalapril prevent this effect. Enalapril has been shown to lower the death rate in systolic heart failure.[1] Enalapril was the first member of the group of ACE inhibitors known as the dicarboxylate-containing ACE inhibitors.
