The underlying mechanisms by which angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors prevent vascular events have been discussed widely. |
|
This class of receptors includes the angiotensin, bradykinin and vasopressin receptors. |
|
By causing volume and sodium depletion, thiazide diuretics stimulate the production of renin and angiotensin. |
|
The greatest cause is probably due to lower production of hormones such as renin, angiotensin and aldosterone, caused by the increased stress. |
|
Moller and colleagues, for example, recently found increased angiotensin II and aldosterone in patients with sleep apnea. |
|
In fact, ANP also lowers renin secretion by the kidneys thus lowering circulating angiotensin II levels. |
|

|
Atacand is an antagonist of vasoconstrictor angiotensin II. The drug relaxes and widens blood vessels to treat hypertension. |
|
It acts on a plasma protein to produce a peptide, angiotensin I, which consists of a chain of 10 amino acids. |
|
Any patient with a history of angioneurotic edema, whether related to an ACE inhibitor, angiotensin receptor blockers, or another cause, should not be given an ACE inhibitor. |
|
Cases of muscle pain, muscle weakness, myositis and rhabdomyolysis have been reported in patients receiving angiotensin II receptor blockers. |
|
Vasopressors including angiotensin II may be considered if fluid replacement is inadequate or contraindicated. |
|
The hypotensive response to captopril is accompanied by a decrease in plasma aldosterone and angiotensin II levels and an increase in plasma renin levels. |
|
Renin is an enzyme that is released by the kidneys into the circulation to stimulate the production of angiotensin I, an inactive decapeptide. |
|
The conceptual basis of progressive left ventricular dysfunction has now turned to neurohormones such as norepinephrine, angiotensin and aldosterone. |
|
|
Angiotensin receptor antagonists are similar to ACE inhibitors in utility and tolerability, but instead of blocking the production of angiotensin II, they completely inhibit its binding to the angiotensin II receptor. |
|
When pregnancy is diagnosed, treatment with angiotensin II antagonists should be stopped immediately, and, if appropriate, alternative therapy should be started. |
|
It acts by blocking the effect of angiotensin, the hormone responsible for the contraction of blood vessels, thereby permitting normalization of arterial blood pressure. |
|
Agranulocytosis and bone marrow depression, manifested as anemia, cytopenia or leukopenia, have been caused by angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, including lisinopril. |
|
The 2004 Canadian Hypertension Education Program recommends a thiazide diuretic, a long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker or an angiotensin receptor blocker for initial treatment of isolated hypertension. |
|
The combination of aliskiren and an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor is associated with a higher incidence of hyperkalemia than with aliskiren or an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor alone. |
|
Olmesartan medoxomil is a prodrug whose active metabolite, olmesartan, blocks the vasoconstrictor effects of angiotensin II by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor in vascular smooth muscle. |
|

|

|
In patients undergoing major surgery or during anesthesia with agents that produce hypotension, lisinopril blocks angiotensin II formation, secondary to compensatory renin release. |
|
It is angiotensin II, not acetylcholine esterase. |
|
