Enalapril maleate is a prominent angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of heart failure, chronic hypertension, and asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction. The FDA has approved a fixed-dose combination of enalapril with hydrochlorothiazide. Enalapril is utilized in asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction as it mitigates progression to symptomatic heart failure and reduces mortality.This activity focuses on various aspects of enalapril, including its indications, mechanism of action, adverse event profile, dosing considerations, monitoring strategies, and potential drug interactions, specifically emphasizing its crucial role as an effective agent in managing hypertension and associated disorders. This activity also highlights the significance of a collaborative approach involving an interprofessional healthcare team in effectively utilizing and managing enalapril, ensuring shared decision-making and patient safety while delivering optimal care to patients with hypertension and related conditions.
