Usage indications

Lisinopril is used for the treatment of increased blood pressure and cardiac insufficiency.

Application mode

Lisinopril should be taken at the doses, recommended by your doctor. Lisinopril is taken during  meal or afterwards. Lisinorpil should be taken at the same time every day to keep constant level of drug in blood. Lisinopril should not be taken within two hours after antacides intake, as they block the drug absorption.

Mechanism of action

Lisinopril is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. Angiotensin is a chemical that is made by the body continuously. It narrows blood vessels and thereby maintains (elevates) blood pressure. When the enzyme is blocked by lisinopril, angiotensin cannot be converted into its active form. As a result, blood pressure falls.

Interestingly, lisinopril and other ACE inhibitors were developed from the venom of a poisonous Brazilian snake.

Missed doses

During single miss of doze intake, it is necessary to take the doze as soon as possible. If the time of missed doze intake corresponds to the time of next doze intake the drug intake should be missed. The double dosage is prohibited for intake.

Storage

Lisinopril should be stored at dry place at the temperature of 15-30 C degrees (59-86 F degrees).
