pharmachologic effect

ACE inhibitor. It is a prodrug from which the active metabolite enalaprilat is formed in the body. It is believed that the mechanism of antihypertensive action is associated with competitive inhibition of ACE activity, which leads to a decrease in the rate of conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II (which has a pronounced vasoconstrictor effect and stimulates the secretion of aldosterone in the adrenal cortex). As a result of a decrease in the concentration of angiotensin II, a secondary increase in plasma renin activity occurs due to the elimination of negative feedback during the release of renin and a direct decrease in aldosterone secretion. In addition, enalaprilat appears to have an effect on the kinin-kallikrein system, preventing the breakdown of bradykinin. Due to the vasodilating effect, it reduces the OPSS (afterload),wedge pressure in the pulmonary capillaries (preload) and resistance in the pulmonary vessels; increases cardiac output and exercise tolerance. In patients with chronic heart failure, long-term use of enalapril increases exercise tolerance and reduces the severity of heart failure (assessed by NYHA criteria). Enalapril in patients with mild to moderate heart failure slows down its progression, and also slows down the development of left ventricular dilatation. In left ventricular dysfunction, enalapril reduces the risk of major ischemic outcomes (including the incidence of myocardial infarction and the number of hospitalizations for unstable angina).In patients with chronic heart failure, long-term use of enalapril increases exercise tolerance and reduces the severity of heart failure (assessed by NYHA criteria).

Pharmacokinetics

When taken orally, about 60% is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Simultaneous food intake does not affect absorption. It is metabolized in the liver by hydrolysis with the formation of enalaprilat, due to the pharmacological activity of which the hypotensive effect is realized. Plasma protein binding of enalaprilat is 50-60%. T1 / 2 of enalaprilat is 11 hours and increases with renal failure. After oral administration, 60% of the dose is excreted by the kidneys (20% as enalapril, 40% as enalaprilat), 33% is excreted through the intestines (6% as enalapril, 27% as enalaprilat). After intravenous administration of enalaprilat, 100% is excreted by the kidneys unchanged.

Side effect

From the nervous system: dizziness, headache, tiredness, fatigue; very rarely when used in high doses - sleep disorders, nervousness, depression, imbalance, paresthesia, tinnitus. From the side of the cardiovascular system: orthostatic hypotension, fainting, palpitations, pain in the region of the heart; very rarely, when used in high doses, hot flashes. From the digestive system: nausea; rarely - dry mouth, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, abnormal liver function, increased activity of hepatic transaminases, increased concentration of bilirubin in the blood, hepatitis, pancreatitis; very rarely when used in high doses - glossitis. From the hematopoietic system: rarely - neutropenia; in patients with autoimmune diseases - agranulocytosis. From the urinary system:rarely - renal dysfunction, proteinuria. From the respiratory system: dry cough. On the part of the reproductive system: very rarely, when used in high doses, impotence. Dermatological reactions: very rarely, when used in high doses, hair loss. Allergic reactions: rarely - skin rash, Quincke's edema. Others: rarely - hyperkalemia, muscle cramps.

Application during pregnancy and lactation

Contraindicated in pregnancy. With the onset of pregnancy, enalapril should be discontinued immediately. Enalapril is excreted in breast milk. If necessary, its use during lactation should decide on the termination of breastfeeding.

Application for violations of liver function

Use with extreme caution in patients with impaired liver function.

Application in children

The safety and efficacy of enalapril in children have not been established.

special instructions

It is used with extreme caution in patients with autoimmune diseases, diabetes mellitus, liver dysfunction, severe aortic stenosis, subaortic muscle stenosis of unknown origin, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, with loss of fluid and salts. In the case of previous treatment with saluretics, in particular in patients with chronic heart failure, the risk of orthostatic hypotension increases, therefore, before starting treatment with enalapril, it is necessary to compensate for the loss of fluid and salts. With long-term treatment with enalapril, it is necessary to periodically monitor the peripheral blood picture. Sudden discontinuation of enalapril does not cause a sharp increase in blood pressure. During surgical interventions during the treatment with enalapril, the development of arterial hypotension is possible,which should be corrected by the introduction of a sufficient amount of fluid. Before examining the function of the parathyroid glands, enalapril should be discontinued. Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and mechanisms Care must be taken when driving vehicles or performing other work that requires increased attention, because dizziness is possible, especially after taking the initial dose of enalapril.

Drug interactions

With simultaneous use with immunosuppressants, cytostatics, the risk of developing leukopenia increases. With the simultaneous use of potassium-sparing diuretics (including spironolactone, triamterene, amiloride), potassium preparations, salt substitutes and dietary supplements containing potassium, hyperkalemia may develop (especially in patients with impaired renal function), because ACE inhibitors reduce the content of aldosterone, which leads to a retention of potassium in the body against the background of limiting the excretion of potassium or its additional intake into the body. With the simultaneous use of opioid analgesics and anesthetics, the antihypertensive effect of enalapril is enhanced. With the simultaneous use of 'loop' diuretics, thiazide diuretics, the antihypertensive effect is enhanced. There is a risk of developing hypokalemia.Increased risk of renal impairment. With simultaneous use with azathioprine, anemia may develop, which is due to inhibition of the activity of erythropoietin under the influence of ACE inhibitors and azathioprine. A case of the development of anaphylactic reaction and myocardial infarction with the use of allopurinol in a patient receiving enalapril is described. Acetylsalicylic acid in high doses can reduce the antihypertensive effect of enalapril. It has not been definitively established whether acetylsalicylic acid reduces the therapeutic efficacy of ACE inhibitors in patients with coronary artery disease and heart failure. The nature of this interaction depends on the course of the disease. Acetylsalicylic acid, by inhibiting COX and prostaglandin synthesis, can cause vasoconstriction,which leads to a decrease in cardiac output and a worsening of the condition of patients with heart failure receiving ACE inhibitors. With the simultaneous use of beta-blockers, methyldopa, nitrates, calcium channel blockers, hydralazine, prazosin, an increase in the antihypertensive effect is possible. With simultaneous use with NSAIDs (including with indomethacin), the antihypertensive effect of enalapril decreases, apparently due to the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis under the influence of NSAIDs (which are believed to play a role in the development of the hypotensive effect of ACE inhibitors). The risk of developing impaired renal function increases; hyperkalemia is rarely observed. With the simultaneous use of insulin, hypoglycemic agents, sulfonylurea derivatives, hypoglycemia may develop.With the simultaneous use of ACE inhibitors and interleukin-3, there is a risk of developing arterial hypotension. With simultaneous use with clozapine, there are reports of the development of syncope. With simultaneous use with clomipramine, an increase in the action of clomipramine and the development of toxic effects have been reported. With simultaneous use with co-trimoxazole, cases of the development of hyperkalemia have been described. With simultaneous use with lithium carbonate, the concentration of lithium in the blood serum increases, which is accompanied by symptoms of lithium intoxication. With simultaneous use with orlistat, the antihypertensive effect of enalapril decreases, which can lead to a significant increase in blood pressure, the development of a hypertensive crisis. It is believed that with simultaneous use with procainamide, an increase in the risk of developing leukopenia is possible.With simultaneous use with enalapril, the effect of drugs containing theophylline decreases. There have been reports of the development of acute renal failure in patients after kidney transplantation with simultaneous use with cyclosporine. With simultaneous use with cimetidine, T1 / 2 of enalapril increases and its concentration in blood plasma increases. It is believed that it is possible to reduce the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs when used simultaneously with erythropoietins. With simultaneous use with ethanol, the risk of developing arterial hypotension increases.With simultaneous use with cimetidine, T1 / 2 of enalapril increases and its concentration in blood plasma increases. It is believed that it is possible to reduce the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs when used simultaneously with erythropoietins. With simultaneous use with ethanol, the risk of developing arterial hypotension increases.With simultaneous use with cimetidine, T1 / 2 of enalapril increases and its concentration in blood plasma increases.
