Heart failure, Myocardial infarction, Diabetic nephropathy, Hypertension

Adult: Initially, 10 mg/day, 1st dose given preferably at bedtime to avoid precipitous fall in BP. Patient w/ renovascular HTN, volume depletion, severe HTN: Initially, 2.5-5 mg once daily.
Patient on diuretic: Initially, 5 mg once daily. Maintenance: 20 mg once daily, up to 80 mg/day may be given if needed.
Heart failure

Contra Indications
History of angioedema related to previous treatment with ACE inhibitors, hereditary or idiopathic angioedema. Bilateral renal artery stenosis. Pregnancy (2nd or 3rd trimester), lactation.
Precautions
Hypovolaemia, hyperkalaemia, collagen vascular disease, valvular stenosis; before, during or immediately after anaesthesia, preexisting renal insufficiency, unilateral renal artery stenosis. Children <6 yr. Assess renal function. May impair ability to drive or operate machinery.
Lactation: Not known if excreted into breast milk; not recommended
Pregnancy-Lactation
Pregnancy category: D
Discontinue as soon as pregnancy detected; during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, drugs that act directly on the renin-angiotensin system have been associated with fetal injury, including hypotension, neonatal skull hypoplasia, anuria, reversible and irreversible renal failure, and death
Lactation: Not known if excreted into breast milk; not recommended
Interactions
May enhance hypotensive effect w/ diuretics. May increase risk of renal function deterioration and decrease antihypertensive effect w/ NSAIDs. May increase serum levels and toxicity of lithium. Increased risk of hyperkalaemia w/ K-sparing diuretics and K supplements. May increase nitritoid reactions of gold Na thiomalate.
Potentially Fatal: Increased risk of hypotension, hyperkalaemia and changes in renal function w/ aliskiren in patients w/ diabetes or renal impairment.

Potentially Fatal: Severe hypotension, angioedema.
Mechanism of Action
Lisinopril competitively inhibits ACE from converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II (a potent vasoconstrictor) resulting in increased plasma renin activity and reduced aldosterone (a hormone that causes water and Na retention) secretion. This promotes vasodilation and BP reduction.
