What this medicine is for
Pharmacologically, this molecule belongs to the “ACE inhibitor (antihypertensive)” category. This medicine relaxes the vessels and lowers blood pressure by acting on the renin-angiotensin system; it also protects the heart and the kidneys.
In practice: Treats high blood pressure and heart failure. It is most often a long-term treatment, taken at regular times over long periods; its benefit is judged over time, not by how you feel on a given day.
