Drug Mode of Action ::
Enalapril, a prodrug of enalaprilat, competitively inhibits ACE from converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II (a potent vasoconstrictor) resulting in increased plasma renin activity and reduced aldosterone (a hormone that causes water and Na retention) secretion. This promotes vasodilation and BP reduction.
Drug Interactions ::
May potentiate hypotensive action w/ diuretics, other antihypertensives, TCAs, nitrates or anaesth. Concomitant admin w/ lithium carbonate may cause lithium toxicity. Increased risk of renal impairment w/ NSAIDs. May increase hyperkalaemic effect w/ K-sparing diuretics and supplements.
