How does this medication work?
This medication prevents angiotensin-converting enzyme which is responsible for the catalysis of angiotensin II from angiotensin I. Angiotensin II accelerates blood pressure. Therefore when angiotensin production is lessened, plasma concentrations of aldosterone also decrease. Thus potassium rises in the blood and more sodium is excreted through the urine.
