Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)

High Blood Pressure can occur due to Diabetes, Kidney disease, or High Cholesterol.
Heart failure
Heart failure is when the heart doesn’t pump blood as well as it should to the rest of the body. Heart failure is complicated when the heart isn’t built right or working right. This makes it hard for the ventricles, the heart’s lower chambers, to move blood.
Over time, the problem worsens because the heart muscles get weaker or stiffer, making it harder for the heart to pump blood.
Working of Lisinopril
An enzyme called Angiotensin-converting enzyme can’t do its job when you take Lipril 5 mg (ACE). It works by relaxing the blood vessels and making the heart less stressed. This makes the blood flow more smoothly, and the heart pumps blood more efficiently.
