Enam 2.5 Tablet is taken orally.

Enam 2.5 Tablet contains enalapril (2.5 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Conversion into Active Form: Enalapril is inactive when ingested and then converted into its active form, enalaprilat, inside your body.

• ACE Inhibition: Enalaprilat inhibits an enzyme in your body called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). This enzyme usually converts a hormone called angiotensin I into another hormone called angiotensin II, which narrows (or constricts) your blood vessels and stimulates aldosterone secretion, a hormone that increases salt and water retention in your body.

• Lower Blood Pressure: By inhibiting ACE, enalapril reduces levels of angiotensin II and aldosterone, leading to widened blood vessels (vasodilation), lower blood pressure, and decreased water and salt retention.

• Keep Enam 2.5 Tablet stored at room temperature.

• Safeguard the medicine from light and moisture.

• Always ensure the container is tightly closed after use.

• Avoid letting children get access to this medication.

• Make sure to take this medicine before its expiry date.

• If you're managing hypertension with Enam 2.5 Tablet, consider reducing your salt intake. High amounts of salt can raise your blood pressure, potentially affecting the medication's effectiveness.

• Engage in regular gentle exercise, like walking or cycling. Regular physical activity helps lower high blood pressure and can assist in managing symptoms of heart failure.
