How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Enalapril Maleate). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

Enalapril, after hydrolysis to enalaprilat, inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in human subjects and animals.
ACE is a peptidyl dipeptidase that catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin I to the vasoconstrictor substance, angiotensin II.

The shape is a standard model drawn from the two times above, not a measurement. How fast a medicine acts and wears off also depends on the dose, the form and the person.

With food

A high-fat meal reduced the C max of enalapril and enalaprilat by 46% and 36%, respectively.
