What is Understanding ACE Inhibitors and ARBs about?
ACE inhibitors act by preventing the conversion of angiotensin I to the vasoconstrictor angiotensin II in the lungs. They are primarily used to treat hypertension but are also used for heart failure, diabetic nephropathy, and slowing the progression of renal disease. Common side effects include cough, hypotension, and renal impairment. Nursing care involves monitoring for side effects and ensuring patient education and adherence to therapy.
