Zinopril 10Mg 28Tab

Zinopril is a medication used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. It belongs to the class of ACE inhibitors, which helps relax blood vessels and reduce pressure on the heart. It is also used to protect the kidneys in diabetic patients.

Zinopril (LISINOPRIL) works by inhibiting the angiotensin-converting enzyme, preventing the conversion of angiotensin 1 to angiotensin 2, a compound that causes blood vessel constriction. This leads to the dilation of blood vessels, reducing blood pressure and easing the workload on the heart. Additionally, it helps improve blood flow to vital organs, enhancing the health of the heart and kidneys.
