Pharmacological Effects: Quinapril is an ACE inhibitor that works by blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor. By inhibiting this process, quinapril helps dilate blood vessels, reduce blood pressure, and improve cardiac output.

Clinical Trials: Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of quinapril in reducing cardiovascular events and mortality in patients with heart failure and hypertension. One study published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed a significant reduction in the risk of heart failure-related hospitalizations with quinapril treatment compared to placebo.
