Potential angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors from Iranian traditional plants described by Avicenna’s Canon of Medicine
Objective: Hypertension is an important cause of cardiovascular disorders. The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) plays an important role in hypertension; therefore, inhibition of ACE in treatment of chronically elevated blood pressure is an important therapeutic approach. In the current review, we have p...
متن کاملBlood pressure lowering efficacy of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors for primary hypertension.
BACKGROUND ACE inhibitors are widely prescribed for hypertension so it is essential to determine and compare their effects on blood pressure (BP), heart rate and withdrawals due to adverse effects (WDAE). OBJECTIVES To quantify the dose-related systolic and/or diastolic BP lowering efficacy of ACE inhibitors versus placebo in the treatment of primary hypertension. SEARCH STRATEGY We searche...
متن کاملTherapeutic controversies in hypertension management: angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers in diabetic nephropathy? ACE inhibitors.
Diabetic nephropathy is the number one cause of endstage renal disease in the United States. Blood pressure is most important in delaying the progression of renal disease in persons with diabetes and, agents that block the renin angiotensin system (RAS) should be the primary agents used to achieve blood pressure reduction. There is debate regarding which method of RAS blockade should be used as...
متن کاملAngiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and pulmonary hypertension.
AIM To evaluate the efficacy of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors Enalapril, Fosonopril and Moexipril on mean and systolic pulmonary artery pressure. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included Ill patients with chronic obstructive bronchopneumopathies associated with arterial hypertension and mild to moderate heart failure (NYHA I-II class). The patients were examined at baseline and afte...
متن کاملAngiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors.
The purpose of this brief review is to separate the characteristic properties and side effects attributable to the pharmacology of the whole class of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors from those attributable to the chemical structure and kinetics of each particular ACE inhibitor. The former would be predictable and probably similar for all agents and, therefore, would be expected t...
