Lisinopril

Overview

Basic Info

SummaryLisinopril is a type of medication known as an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that is frequently prescribed for the management of hypertension, heart failure, and other cardiovascular conditions. By preventing the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a hormone that causes blood vessels to constrict, lisinopril helps to reduce blood pressure. The medication is available in oral formulations and generally well-tolerated by patients. Nonetheless, side effects, such as cough, dizziness, and hypotension, may occur. As a researcher, it is noteworthy that ongoing investigations into the potential benefits of lisinopril for the treatment of conditions like diabetic nephropathy and migraines have shown encouraging results in preclinical and clinical studies.
