Rentiapril - CISMeF

Preferred Label : Rentiapril;

NCIt definition : A potent angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor with antihypertensive activity. Rentiapril competitively binds to and inhibits ACE, thereby blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. This prevents the potent vasoconstrictive actions of angiotensin II and results in vasodilation. Rentiapril also decreases angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion by the adrenal cortex, which leads to an increase in sodium excretion and subsequently increases water outflow.;
