Scientific Evidence

Perindopril, the active ingredient in Prenesa Oro, is an ACE inhibitor that works by blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor. This action leads to vasodilation and decreased blood pressure, making it effective in the management of hypertension and heart failure.

Studies have shown that perindopril is well-tolerated and effective in reducing cardiovascular events in patients with a history of myocardial infarction or stable coronary artery disease. The EUROPA trial demonstrated a significant reduction in the risk of cardiovascular events with perindopril therapy, highlighting its role in secondary prevention.
