1 UNLABELLED: Quinapril is rapidly de-esterified after absorption to quinaprilat (the active diacid metabolite), a potent angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
2 UNLABELLED: Quinapril is rapidly de-esterified after absorption to quinaprilat (the active diacid metabolite), a potent angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
3 Quinapril produces favourable haemodynamic changes, and improves ventricular and endothelial function in patients with various cardiovascular disorders; these effects are mediated through the binding of quinaprilat to both tissue and plasma ACE. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
4 The tolerability of quinapril is similar to that of other ACE inhibitors. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
5 CONCLUSION: Quinapril is now firmly established as an effective and well tolerated ACE inhibitor for the treatment of patients with hypertension and congestive heart failure. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
