Drug Name: | Lisinopril |
Synonyms: | |
Type: | small molecule |
DrugBank ID: | DB00722 |
DrugBank Description: | Lisinopril is an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) used to treat hypertension, heart failure, and myocardial infarction.[L8384,L8387,L8390] Lisinopril and [captopril] are the only ACEIs that are not prodrugs.[A184853] It functions by inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme as well as the renin angiotensin aldosterone system.[A184781,A184808,A184817] ACEIs are commonly used as a first line therapy in the treatment of hypertension, along with thiazide diuretics or beta blockers.[A184844] Lisinopril was granted FDA approval on 29 December 1987.[L8384] |

DrugBank MoA: | Angiotensin II constricts coronary blood vessels and is positively inotropic, which under normal circumstances, would increase vascular resistance and oxygen consumption.[A184781] This action can eventually lead to myocyte hypertrophy and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation.[A184781] Lisinopril is an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), preventing the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.[A184781,A184808] This action prevents myocyte hypertrophy and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation seen in untreated patients.[A184808] Increased levels of bradykinin also exhibit vasodilating effects for patients taking ACEIs.[A184808] Lisinopril also inhibits renin's conversion of angiotensin to angiotensin I.[A184817] |
DrugBank Pharmacology: | Lisinopril is an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor used to treat hypertension, heart failure, and myocardial infarction.[L8384,L8387,L8390] Lisinopril is not a prodrug, and functions by inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme as well as the renin angiotensin aldosterone system.[A184781,A184808,A184817] It has a wide therapeutic index and a long duration of action as patients are generally given 10-80mg daily.[L8384,L8387,L8390] |
DrugBank Indication: | Lisinopril is indicated for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction, hypertension in patients ≥6 years, and as an adjunct therapy for heart failure.[L8384,L8387] A combination product with hydrochlorothiazide is indicated for the treatment of hypertension.[L8390] |
