Postmarketing Constipation, necrotizing fasciitis of the perineum, urosepsis, pyelonephritis, ketoacidosis, acute kidney injury, angioedema, skin reactions (rash, urticaria)
Pharmacology
ACE inhibitor; enalapril is hydrolyzed to enalaprilat, which inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme, suppressing the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and thereby reducing plasma angiotensin II, vasopressor activity, and aldosterone secretion.
Empagliflozin is an SGLT2 inhibitor that reduces renal reabsorption of filtered glucose, lowers the renal threshold for glucose, and increases urinary glucose excretion; it also reduces sodium reabsorption, which may increase tubuloglomerular feedback, reduce intraglomerular pressure, and lower cardiac pre- and afterload.
