Pharmacology
Omapatrilat is used to treat hypertension. Vasopeptidase inhibitor that simultaneously inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and neutral endopeptidase (NEP). Omapatrilat lowers blood pressure by inhibiting the action of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), which causes blood vessels to constrict. But unlike other drugs, omapatrilat also inhibits another enzyme known as neutral endopeptidase (NEP), which helps blood vessels relax. Omapatrilat demonstrated greater reduction in blood pressure than the ACE inhibitor lisinopril in individuals with salt-sensitive hypertension who typically do not respond well to ACE inhibitors.
Vanlev
Absorption
