ACE inhibitor |
|
Synonyms |
ACE-inhibitors angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor ACE-inhibitor angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibition ACE-I ACEIs |
|
Definitions |
A pharmaceutical agent that inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Inhibition of ACE results in a reduction in angiotensin II and angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion, causing vasodilation and natriuresis. It is primarily used for the reduction of proteinuria and the treatment of hypertension.; A drug that is used to lower blood pressure. An ACE inhibitor is a type of antihypertensive agent.
