PropertyValue
?:definition
  • A pharmaceutical agent that inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Inhibition of ACE results in a reduction in angiotensin II and angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion, causing vasodilation and natriuresis. It is primarily used for the reduction of proteinuria and the treatment of hypertension.
