ACE Inhibitors Mnemonic for Nursing Pharmacology (NCLEX)

Study this ACE Inhibitors NCLEX mnemonic and other mnemonics with Pixorize.
ACE Inhibitors (ACEIs) are medications that end in -pril, including lisinopril, captopril, ramipril, and enalapril. ACE inhibitors work by blocking angiotensin converting enzyme or ACE, which blocks the conversion of angiotensin I to its active counterpart, angiotensin II. Reduced angiotensin II levels cause vasodilation, and reduced downstream signaling of aldosterone further reduces blood volume. The overall effect of treatment with an ACE inhibitor is lowering of blood pressure. Clinically, ACE inhibitors are used to treat hypertension and heart failure. Side effects include a dry cough, angioedema, and hyperkalemia. Notably, ACE inhibitors are teratogenic and should not be used during pregnancy.

failed my first pharm exam, but passed my second one thanks to y’all. your videos are VERY helpful for learners like me!

[@Pixorize]

That is awesome! You got this!

[@treeherder2201]

Just play the game.....Then when you get into the real world, you will simply pull out your phone and google meds. Half of what they reach in nursing school, you'll never need to memorize. You are in "NCLEX School," when you pass that, THEN you will learn real nursing.
