Drug Mode of Action ::  

Lisinopril 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 enhance hypotensive effect w/ diuretics. May increase risk of renal function deterioration and decrease antihypertensive effect w/ NSAIDs. May increase serum levels and toxicity of lithium. Increased risk of hyperkalaemia w/ K-sparing diuretics and K supplements. May increase nitritoid reactions of gold Na thiomalate. Potentially Fatal: Increased risk of hypotension, hyperkalaemia and changes in renal function w/ aliskiren in patients w/ diabetes or renal impairment.
