Perindopril is a chemical compound that is structurally related to the compound enalapril and, like it, is an ACE inhibitor .
Extraction and presentation
Perindopril can be produced by the coupling of (2 S , 3a S , 7a S ) -Octahydroindole-2-carboxylic acid benzyl ester with N - [( S ) -1-carboxybutyl] - ( S ) -alanine ethyl ester, followed by the deprotection of the carboxy group of the heterocycle by catalytic hydrogenation can be obtained.
Pharmacodynamics
Like ramipril , captopril , enalapril , lisinopril and zofenopril, perindopril belongs to the class of ACE inhibitors. ACE is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II . Angiotensin II has a direct and indirect vasoconstricting effect by releasing catecholamines from the adrenal medulla, by facilitating the release of norepinephrine and by increasing the sympathetic tone. These factors all contribute to an increase in blood pressure. In addition, angiotensin II causes the release of aldosterone , also known as the “thirst hormone”, which is why ACE inhibition also has a weak diuretic effect. The compound is a prodrug ester of perindoprilat .
use
Perindopril is an active ingredient that is used to treat arterial hypertension (high blood pressure), cardiac insufficiency (heart muscle weakness) and for the prophylaxis of cardiological diseases. The patent on the drug expired in 2003.
