Fosinopril, a prodrug of fosinoprilat, competitively inhibits ACE from converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II resulting in decreased levels of angiotensin II which causes increased plasma renin activity and reduced aldosterone secretion. It also reduces Na and water retention. This promotes vasodilation and BP reduction.
Additive hyperkalaemic effect w/ K-sparing diuretics and K supplements. May increase lithium serum levels and toxicity. May decrease serum level w/ antacids. May increase risk of renal function deterioration w/ NSAIDs. May increase nitritoid reactions of gold (Na aurothiomalate).
