How does the Drug work
◉Enalapril is a medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as ACE inhibitors (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors). It works by blocking the activity of an enzyme called ACE, which is responsible for producing a substance called angiotensin II.
◉ Angiotensin II is a potent vasoconstrictor, which means it causes the blood vessels to narrow and the blood pressure to increase. By inhibiting ACE, enalapril reduces the production of angiotensin II, which leads to relaxation of blood vessels, and subsequently, the lowering of blood pressure.
◉ In addition to lowering blood pressure, enalapril also has other beneficial effects on the heart and blood vessels. It can help reduce the workload on the heart by decreasing the amount of fluid that needs to be pumped, and it can improve blood flow to the heart and other organs.
◉ Overall, enalapril is used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure, and to improve survival after a heart attack.
