| | Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors Side Effects |
 | | ACE inhibitor therapy is now a mainstay of clinical practice. | | | ACE inhibitor therapy in patients with either cardiac and/or renal disease is as much an art as it is a science, and even in the most skilled hands can prove a challenging undertaking. | | | ACE inhibitor hypotension can present as a first-dose phenomenon or anytime in the course of chronic therapy. |

| | Effect of valsartan added to background ACE inhibitor therapy in patients with heart failure: results from Val-HeFT. | | | Potassium supplementation should be used with caution and under medical supervision owing to the hyperkalaemic effect of ACE inhibitors. | | | This 'dual blockade' may be more effective than using an ACE inhibitor alone, because angiotensin II can be generated via non-ACE-dependent pathways. |

| | The proportion of patients treated with ACE inhibitors was 69 percent during 1998—1999 and 67 percent between 2000 and 2001. | | | The study shows the benefits of ACE inhibitors in patients underrepresented in clinical studies, or for whom the benefits of ACE-inhibitors have been controversial, Masoudi said. | | | When ACE inhibitors and ARBs were considered together, 78 percent of patients had prescriptions at hospital discharge. |

| | The researchers say "life-saving therapy is being withheld on the basis of questionable evidence" and suggest that ACE inhibitors be given to more patients. | | | After a treatment period with diuretics, digoxin and low-dose ACE inhibitors, group A continued standard treatment, group B took a high-dose ACE inhibitor, and group C continued standard therapy with an ARB added. | | | Benefit was seen when added to current therapy of ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers. |

| | With post-marketing studies still ongoing in a number of indications, it would seem that the ACE inhibitors are not yet ready to give up their position in the therapeutic arsenal. | | | Whilst the ATIIAs are indeed the fastest-growing group of antihypertensive products, the ACE inhibitors have seen something of a resurgence over the last couple of years, thanks to some impressive results from large clinical trials. | | | More findings from the HOPE trial were published in the British Medical Journal in March 2002, demonstrating that ramipril reduced the overall risk of stroke by 32%, and the risk of fatal stroke by 61%. |
