How Enam 10mg Tablet works
- Enam 10mg Tablet inhibits the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which plays a crucial role in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS).
- By blocking ACE, it decreases the production of angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels.
- This leads to vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), resulting in lower blood pressure.
- Reduces the secretion of aldosterone, which decreases sodium and water retention, further lowering blood pressure.
- Improves cardiac output by reducing the workload on the heart.
