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