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.
Triple-combination antihypertensive; olmesartan medoxomil selectively blocks angiotensin II AT1 receptors in vascular smooth muscle, amlodipine inhibits transmembrane calcium ion influx into vascular and cardiac smooth muscle, and hydrochlorothiazide promotes renal excretion of sodium and chloride to reduce intravascular volume.
