Aterosclerosis
Inhibidores de la enzima convertidora de angiotensina, también llamados inhibidores ACE, son medicamentos usados para tratar la presión arterial alta y la insuficiencia cardiaca. Inhibidores ACE alteran la capacidad del cuerpo para producir la angiotensina II; una hormona que hace que las arterias se estrechen. Al bloquear la realización de la angiotensina, estos medicamentos ayudan a que los vasos sanguíneos se relajan y se ensanchan, lo que disminuye la presión arterial, aumenta el flujo de sangre al corazón y reduce la carga de trabajo del corazón.
