High blood pressure is defined as systolic pressure greater than 140 and/or diastolic pressure greater than 90. People with systolic blood pressures between 120 and 139, or diastolic pressures of 80 to 89 are considered “pre-hypertensive” and need medical monitoring and lifestyle changes. ...

-Antihypertensives- drugs used to control high blood pressure. Some of the drugs in this category are hydralazine, captopril, propranolol, methyldopa, and metoprolol -Calcium channel blockers- inhibits the transport of calcium into the myocardial and vascular smooth muscle cells, which decreases myocardial contractibility and the demand for oxygen.

(Hint: Angiotensin must be discussed.) Angiotensin is a hormone that causes vasoconstriction (narrowing of blood vessels) which causes high blood pressure. ACE inhibitors target angiotensin, preventing the vasoconstriction, which lowers the blood pressure since the blood vessel opening is bigger.

The initial dose of ACE inhibitor may precipitate a rather dramatic but transient fall in blood pressure that likely reflects a higher level of renin-angiotensin and that could be a harbinger of the presence of renovascular hypertension (simple diagnostic test for the disease).
Patient assessment - American Heart Association
ACE inhibitors are also effective for patients with reduced left ventricular function. NB: the . doses. of ACE inhibitors demonstrating these effects were high e.g. Ramipril 10mg daily or Lisinopril 40mg daily. Therefore it is important to try and achieve the equivalent doses. If this is impossible the highest tolerated dose should be used.
