Description

Enalapril Maleate, the active metabolite of enalapril, is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor.Target: ACEEnalapril is a prodrug that belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor class of medications. It is rapidly metabolized in the liver to enalaprilat following oral administration. Enalaprilat is a potent, competitive inhibitor of ACE, the enzyme responsible for the conversion of angiotensin I (ATI) to angiotensin II (ATII). ATII regulates blood pressure an


Enalapril maleate is the second angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor to reach the marketplace. Like captopril, the first entry in this area, enalapril is useful in the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure. It has a longer effective half-life than captopril, allowing once or twice-daily dosing, and appears to have a somewhat lower incidence of side effects.


White to Off-White Crystalline Powder


Enalapril maleate, 1-[N[(S)-1-carboxy-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alanyl]-L-proline 1 -ethyl estermaleate (Vasotec), is a long-acting ACE inhibitor. It requiresactivation by hydrolysis of its ethyl ester to form thediacid enalaprilat. Enalapril is devoid of the side effects ofrash and loss of taste seen with captopril. These side effectsare similar to those of the mercapto-containing drugpenicillamine. The absence of the thiol group in enalaprilmaleate may free it from these side effects. The half-life is11 hours.

Enalapril maleate Use and Manufacturing

An antihypertensive.An angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor.


sunscreen


Enalapril maleate salt is used as a long-acting ACE inhibitor and antihypertensive, used to study diabetic angiopathy in diabetic rats and inhibition of ACE in hog plasma (I50=1.2nM). ACE inhibitors disturb the enin-angiotensin- aldosterone system. Additional ACE inhibitors include: Enalapril, Enalaprilat dihydrate, Enalaprilat, and Enalapril-d5 Maleate Salt, among others.

Drug Function and Efficacy

It is hydrolyzed in the liver to enalaprilat, which is a renin angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), which can reduce the formation of AgII in tissues and plasma, reduce aldosterone secretion, increase plasma potassium concentration, weaken the negative feedback effect of AgII on renin secretion, increase plasma renin activity, and increase the activity of circulating and local kallikrein-kinin systems (also increase the activity of prostaglandin systems). For hypertensive patients, it can reduce supine and standing blood pressure without causing compensatory heart rate acceleration, and significantly reduce peripheral vascular resistance. Usually there is no significant effect on renal blood flow or glomerular filtration rate. The antihypertensive effect appears about 1 hour after taking the medicine, and the peak occurs 4-6 hours after taking the medicine. The maximum antihypertensive effect generally occurs 3-4 weeks after taking the medicine at the prescribed dose. Long-term medication at the recommended dose will continue to have a continuous antihypertensive effect, and short-term discontinuation of the drug will not cause a rebound in blood pressure.
