1 To determine the haemodynamic profile of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors during stress, the cardiovascular response to various stress tests was examined in patients with essential hypertension before and after three months of therapy with lisinopril. Lisinopril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
2 ACE inhibition with lisinopril effectively reduced systolic and diastolic pressure in the office (P less than 0.001), at rest (P less than 0.002), during mental stress (P less than 0.003), cold pressor test (P less than 0.003), and reaction time task (P less than 0.05). Lisinopril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
3 This response pattern to ACE inhibition with lisinopril may reduce the impact of recurring stress-induced increases of blood pressure and of exaggerated vasoconstrictive stimuli on the cardiovascular system. Lisinopril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
