Description

Biochem/physiol Actions

Enalapril, the ethyl ester of enalaprilat exhibits slight pharmacological activity until it is hydrolyzed in the liver to enalaprilat. Enalaprilat, a IV form of an angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACE) prevents the transformation of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor.

Enalaprilat is an inhibitor of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), antihypertensive, and a Bradykinin B1 receptor activator. Enalaprilat has nM potency versus ACE and also activates B1 receptors to release NO.
