Popis: The effects of orally administered captopril, enalapril and lisinopril on plasma concentrations of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), angiotensin II (ANGII) and renin (PRC) were studied over a period of 6 hours in 6 normal subjects. A further 4 subjects received intravenous enalapril and enalaprilic acid (enalaprilat). Captopril (25 mg) by mouth caused a fall in pANGII that reached a nadir 30 to 40 minutes after administration but an effect was hardly apparent after 6 hours. Enalapril (10 mg) by mouth had less marked effects on pACE and pANGII with a decline in levels first apparent 1 hour after administration and the lowest levels reached between 3 and 6 hours. Lisinopril (10 mg) produced a progressive fall in pACE and pANGII from 1 hour to reach the lowest values 6 hours after treatment. Intravenous enalaprilat (5 mg) produced an immediate sustained fall in both pACE and pANGII but intravenous enalapril (7 mg) had a biphasic inhibitory effect.
