Enalapril, which is sold under the brand name “Epaned”, is indicated for the treatment of high blood pressure and congestive heart failure, which in turn is a disorder that decreases the heart’s ability to pump blood to the body. It is worth noting that Enalapril works by blocking the substance that tightens the blood vessels, thereby causing them to relax. “This lowers blood pressure and increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart.” Bear in mind that using this drug during pregnancy is not recommended. Besides, you should not use it if you’ve ever had angioedema. According to drugs.com, people with diabetes should not use Enalapril with any medication that contains aliskiren. And in order to make sure that the drug in question is safe for you, you must tell your doctor about your other health conditions, especially if you have liver/ kidney / heart disease, or if you have a history of blood clot. Also remember that you may take Enalapril with or without food. When it comes to its common side effects, this medication can cause dizziness, cough, tiredness, and lightheadedness. There are, however, other side effects that require immediate medical help, such as irregular heartbeats, flu symptoms, weakness, and easy bruising.
