What is Lotensin?

Lotensin is a brand-name prescription drug that lowers high blood pressure or hypertension. Benazepril, the active ingredient in Lotensin, belongs to a class of medications called ACE inhibitors. These drugs block the action of a protein, called angiotensin, which causes blood vessels to contract and get more narrow. Blocked by the ACE inhibitor, the blood vessels relax and get wider. As a result, blood pressure goes down. Because of the increased blood flow, Lotensin reduces the load on the heart, as well.

ACE inhibitors are among the safest blood pressure drugs, but not necessarily the most effective. Benazepril is one of the safest of the ACE inhibitors. As a result, Lotensin or generic benazepril will often be the first drug prescribed to a patient newly diagnosed with hypertension.

Lotensin is also prescribed to reduce blood pressure in patients with kidney disease or who have had a heart attack.

What are the side effects of Lotensin?
