Enapril 2.5 mg is prescribed to treat hypertension in adults and children older than one month to reduce blood pressure. Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events, primarily heart attacks and strokes. It is also prescribed for the treatment of patients with heart failure. It decreases the rate of development of overt heart failure and reduces hospitalization for patients with heart failure.

Controlling high blood pressure should be a part of comprehensive cardiovascular risk management, including, as appropriate, diabetes management, lipid control, antithrombotic therapy, smoking cessation, exercise, and limited sodium intake. Many patients require more than one medication to achieve blood pressure goals. Elevated blood pressure causes increased cardiovascular risk; in such cases, reduction of severe hypertension can provide substantial benefits.       

Enapril is contraindicated in patients with a history of angioedema or hypersensitivity related to previous treatment with Enalapril. It should not be given to patients with hereditary or idiopathic angioedema (a skin reaction that causes swelling in tissues under the skin). Taking this medication during pregnancy can cause injury and death to your developing baby. This medicine should be used during pregnancy. If you get pregnant while receiving the medicine, stop treatment and report to your doctor immediately. Enalapril may pass into breast milk. One should avoid breastfeeding while taking Enapril.

 

Certain medications tend to increase your blood pressure, for example, herbal formulations for appetite control, colds, asthma, coughs, sinus problems, fever, or may also react badly with Enapril. It is particularly important to inform your doctor if you are taking diuretics ( water pills), diabetes medicines (insulin), blood pressure lowering drugs and aliskiren containing products, Potassium containing medicines, lithium, and salt substitutes contain Potassium as these may lead to increased blood potassium levels. In this situation, you require dose adjustments.      

Along with its intended effects, any medication, including Enapril, may cause side effects. Most people do not develop any problems when taking this medicine, but if you develop any side effects or if the condition persists or worsens, seek immediate medical help. The side effects include:

 

   —  Sore throat, dry cough

   —  The initial dose may cause a significant reduction in blood pressure. The symptoms of low blood pressure include faintness and dizziness, which may help if you lie down. If concerned, please talk to your doctor.

 

This is not the complete list of side effects. For any unexpected effects while taking Enalapril, talk to your doctor immediately.    

For adults with high blood pressure, your doctor may adjust your dose as per your blood pressure response. For hypertension, the recommended dose is 5 mg once daily. The maximum daily dose is 40 mg once daily. Enapril may be used with a low diuretic dose if additional blood pressure is required. The recommended initial dose in patients taking diuretics is 2.5 mg once daily. For heart failure, the initial recommended dose is 2.5 mg once daily. The dose may be increased up to 20 mg twice daily as tolerated.
