ACE Inhibitors (-prils) - Ans:✔✔-- Block conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II which inhibits

aldosterone and in return lowers BP by:




- Decreasing output of the sympathetic nervous system


- Increasing vasodilation of vascular smooth muscle


- Decreasing retention of sodium and water (by decreasing aldosterone in the system)




- Inhibit the degradation of bradykinin (anti-inflammatory mediator - the cause of the cough and

angioedema) and increase the synthesis of vasodilating prostaglandins


ACE Inhibitor Indications - Ans:✔✔-- HTN: less SE in Caucasian decent




- Hypertensive proteinuric diabetes: helps with renal protection and prevention of nephropathy




- Angina and ischemic heart disease: decreases peripheral vascular resistance which decrease cardiac

output; decrease the thickening of the ventricular walls which leads to less O2 demand
