Cilazapril is a prodrug form of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor cilazaprilat.1 In vivo, cilazapril (0.1 mg/kg) inhibits plasma ACE activity and inhibits the angiotensin I-induced pressor response in anesthetized rats and cats. It decreases systolic blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats when administered at a dose of 30 mg/kg. Cilazapril (10 mg/kg, p.o.) decreases blood pressure in volume-depleted renal hypertensive dogs. Formulations containing cilazapril have been used in the treatment of hypertension.
