This product is commonly prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) and heart failure, and to improve survival after a heart attack. It works by relaxing blood vessels so that blood can flow more easily, which helps lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart.

Benefits:
-Zestril effectively reduces high blood pressure, which decreases the risk of strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.
-Heart Failure Management: It helps improve symptoms in patients with heart failure by reducing strain on the heart.
-It has been shown to improve survival rates in patients who have recently had a heart attack.
-It can help protect kidney function in patients with diabetes or other conditions that may affect kidney health.

Main Ingredients & Their Benefits:
- Lisinopril: effectively lowers blood pressure by inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor. This results in the relaxation of blood vessels, leading to decreased blood pressure and reduced workload on the heart, and helps reduce symptoms and improve overall heart function by decreasing the strain on the heart and improving cardiac output. Also, Lisinopril is indicated for reducing mortality in hemodynamically stable patients after an acute myocardial infarction (heart attack). It aids in preventing further cardiovascular events by improving heart function and reducing blood pressure.

-Zestril is typically administered orally in a single daily dose.

-Dosage Recommendation:
-The usual recommended starting dose for adults with hypertension is 10 mg, but for patients with certain conditions such as renovascular hypertension, salt and/or volume depletion, or severe hypertension, a lower starting dose of 2.5 mg to 5 mg may be appropriate.
-For patients already on diuretics, it is advisable to discontinue the diuretic therapy 2 to 3 days before starting Zestril if possible. If discontinuation isn’t feasible, the initial dose of Zestril should be 5 mg.
-In pediatric patients aged 6–16 years, the initial dose varies based on weight:
-For those weighing 20 to <50 kg, start with 2.5 mg once daily.
-For those weighing ≥50 kg, start with 5 mg once daily.
The maximum dosage for these patients should not exceed 20 mg daily for those weighing 20 to <50 kg, and 40 mg for those weighing ≥50 kg.

-Administration Recommendation:
-Take Zestril at approximately the same time each day.
-It can be taken with or without food; the absorption of the tablets is not affected by food intake.
-The tablets can be swallowed whole or divided into equal doses if needed.
