Also tell your health care professional if you are allergic to any other substances, such as foods, preservatives, or dyes. Pregnancy—Use of ACE inhibitors during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters (after the first three months) can cause low blood pressure, severe kidney failure, too much potassium, or even death in the newborn. Therefore, it is important that you check with your doctor immediately if you think that you may be pregnant. Be sure that you have discussed this with your doctor before taking this medicine. In addition, if you are taking: Benazepril—Benazepril has not been shown to cause birth defects in animals when given in doses more than 3 times the highest recommended human dose. Captopril—Studies in rabbits and rats at doses up to 400 times the recommended human dose have shown that captopril causes an increase in deaths of the fetus and newborn. Also, captopril has caused deformed skulls in the offspring of rabbits given doses 2 to 70 times the recommended human dose. Enalapril—Studies in rats at doses many times the recommended human dose have shown that use of enalapril causes the fetus to be smaller than normal. Studies in rabbits have shown that enalapril causes an increase in fetal death. Enalapril has not been shown to cause birth defects in rats or rabbits. Fosinopril—Studies in rats have shown that fosinopril causes the fetus to be smaller than normal. Studies in rabbits have shown that fosinopril causes fetal death, probably due to extremely low blood pressure. In rats, birth defects such as skeletal and facial deformities were seen. However, it is not clear that the deformities were related to fosinopril. Birth defects were not seen in rabbits. Lisinopril—Studies in mice and rats at doses many times the recommended human dose have shown that use of lisinopril causes a decrease in successful pregnancies, a decrease in the weight of infants, and an increase in infant deaths. It has also caused a decrease in successful pregnancies and abnormal bone growth in rabbits. Lisinopril has not been shown to cause birth defects in mice, rats, or rabbits. Moexipril—Studies in rats given up to 90 times the recommended human dose, and studies in rabbits given up to 0.7 times the recommended human dose, did not show that moexipril causes birth defects in animals. Perindopril—Studies in rabbits given up to 50 times the recommended human dose, and monkeys given up to 17 times the recommended human dose, did not show that perindopril causes birth defects in animals. Quinapril—Studies in rats have shown that quinapril causes lower birth weights and changes in kidney structure of the fetus. However, birth defects were not seen in rabbits given quinapril. Ramipril—Studies in animals have shown that ramipril causes lower birth weights. Trandolapril—Studies in rabbits, rats, and monkeys did not show that trandolapril causes any birth defects in animals.

Cilazapril, lisinopril, moexipril, perindopril, quinapril, ramipril, and trandolapril—It is not known whether these Prescription Drug Viagras pass into breast milk. However, these Prescription Drug Viagras have not been reported to cause problems in nursing babies. Children—Children may be especially sensitive to the blood pressure–lowering effect of ACE inhibitors. This may increase the chance of side effects or other problems during treatment. Therefore, it is especially important that you discuss with the child's doctor the good that Prescription Drug Viagra may do as well as the risks of using it. Older adults—Prescription Drug Viagra has been tested in a limited number of patients 65 years of age or older and has not been shown to cause different side effects or problems in older people than it does in younger adults.

For patients taking this medicine for high blood pressure : Do not take other medicines unless they have been discussed with your doctor. This especially includes over-the-counter (nonprescription) Prescription Drug Viagras for appetite control, asthma, colds, cough, hay fever, or sinus problems, since they may tend to increase your blood pressure. Dizziness or light-headedness may occur after the first dose of Prescription Drug Viagra, especially if you have been taking a diuretic (water pill). Make sure you know how you react to this Prescription Drug Viagra before you drive, use machines, or do anything else that could be dangerous if you are dizzy. Check with your doctor right away if you become sick while taking this Prescription Drug Viagra, especially with severe or continuing nausea and vomiting or diarrhea. These conditions may cause you to lose too much water and lead to low blood pressure. Notify your doctor immediately if you are or become pregnant while taking this Prescription Drug Viagra. Check with your doctor if you have any signs of infection such as chills, fever, or sore throat, because these may be signs of neutropenia. Dizziness, light-headedness, or fainting also may occur if you exercise or if the weather is hot. Heavy sweating can cause loss of too much water and low blood pressure. Use extra care during exercise or hot weather. Avoid alcoholic beverages until you have discussed their use with your doctor. Alcohol may make the low blood pressure effect worse and/or increase the possibility of dizziness or fainting. Before having any kind of surgery (including dental surgery) or emergency treatment, tell the medical doctor or dentist in charge that you are taking this Prescription Drug Viagra.

ACE inhibitors belong to the class of medicines called high blood pressure Prescription Drug Viagras (antihypertensives). They are used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). High blood pressure adds to the workload of the heart and arteries. If it continues for a long time, the heart and arteries may not function properly. This can damage the blood vessels of the brain, heart, and kidneys, resulting in a stroke, heart failure, or kidney failure. High blood pressure may also increase the risk of heart attacks. These problems may be less likely to occur if blood pressure is controlled. Lisinopril, captopril, ramipril, and trandolapril are used in some patients after a heart attack. After a heart attack, some of the heart muscle is damaged and weakened. The heart muscle may continue to weaken as time goes by. This makes it more difficult for the heart to pump blood. Lisinopril use may be started within 24 hours after a heart attack to increase survival rate. Captopril, ramipril, and trandolapril help slow down the further weakening of the heart. Captopril is also used to treat kidney problems in some diabetic patients who use insulin to control their diabetes. Over time, these kidney problems may get worse. Captopril may help slow down the further worsening of kidney problems. In addition, some ACE inhibitors are used to treat congestive heart failure or may be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor. The exact way that these Prescription Drug Viagras work is not known. They block an enzyme in the body that is necessary to produce a substance that causes blood vessels to tighten. As a result, they relax blood vessels. This lowers blood pressure and increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart. These medicines are available only with your doctor's prescription, in the following dosage forms: Oral Benazepril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Captopril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Cilazapril Tablets (Canada) Enalapril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Fosinopril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Lisinopril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Moexipril Tablets (U.S.) Perindopril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Quinapril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Ramipril Capsules (U.S. and Canada) Trandolapril Tablets (U.S. and Canada) Parenteral Enalaprilat Injection (U.S. and Canada)
