What is Lisinopril (ACE inhibitor) and How to Take It
Lisinopril is classified as an ACE inhibitor; these drugs help relax blood vessels. It is a prescription medication for hypertension, heart failure, and heart attacks. Common brand names for Lisinopril include Prinivil and Zestril. Some other drugs from the same class include benazepril, enalapril, captopril, fosinopril, quinapril and ramipril.
Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor—these work by acting on enzymes that cause high blood pressure. ACE inhibitors reduce the amount of the enzyme angiotensin II that typically constricts the blood vessels. The drug also increases the amount of bradykinin, consequently causing the blood vessels to relax and expand. This tends to regulate the blood volume, lowering blood pressure and decreasing the workload on the heart.
Lisinopril pills are available in different strengths, including 2.5mg, 5mg, and 10mg, 20mg, 30mg and 40mg tablets.
The typical dose of Lisinopril and frequency will be determined after evaluating the severity of your current condition. Do not take more than the prescribed dose because overdosing can be life-threatening. These pills can be consumed with food on an empty stomach before meals or in the morning. It is best to stick to the same time each day.
