MeSH Heading: Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
Tree Number(s): D27.505.519.389.745.085
Unique ID: D000806
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000806
Scope Note: A class of drugs whose main indications are the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. They exert their hemodynamic effect mainly by inhibiting the renin-angiotensin system. They also modulate sympathetic nervous system activity and increase prostaglandin synthesis. They cause mainly vasodilation and mild natriuresis without affecting heart rate and contractility.
Entry Term(s): ACE Inhibitor; ACE Inhibitors; Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor; Angiotensin I-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor; Angiotensin I-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors; Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Antagonists; Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor; Antagonists, Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme; Antagonists, Kininase II; Inhibitors, ACE; Inhibitors, Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme; Inhibitors, Kininase II; Kininase II Antagonists; Kininase II Inhibitor; Kininase II Inhibitors
