Lisinopril is a medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and heart failure. It belongs to a class of drugs known as ACE inhibitors (Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme inhibitors), which work by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow.
Mechanism of Action
Lisinopril inhibits the action of ACE, an enzyme that converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor. By reducing levels of angiotensin II, lisinopril causes blood vessels to dilate (widen), leading to a decrease in blood pressure. This action helps reduce the workload on the heart and improves its efficiency, making it particularly beneficial for patients with heart failure.
