Lisinopril is classified as an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and has been available for nearly 3 decades. Lisinopril has some key features that make it different from enalapril and captopril; 1) it has a long half-life, 2) it is hydrophilic, and 3) it is not broken down by the liver. Lisinopril is a competitive inhibitor of angiotensin-converting enzyme and prevents the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, which is a potent vasoconstrictor. This activity covers lisinopril, including its mechanism of action, pharmacology, adverse event profiles, eligible patient populations, and monitoring—and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the management of hypertension with lisinopril.
