May warrant dose caution in renal impairment; extends PK data but leaves open outcome effects.
How do the pharmacokinetics and antihypertensive effects of lisinopril differ between hypertensive patients with normal versus impaired renal function?
Lisinopril provides sustained antihypertensive effects, but its clearance is reduced in patients with impaired renal function, necessitating careful dose consideration.
Shionoiri et al. (1990) studied this question.
