Active ingredients

The drug ZOPRAZIDE contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):

1
UNII 88ZQ329PU2 - ZOFENOPRIL CALCIUM
 

The beneficial effects of zofenopril in hypertension and acute myocardial infarction appear to result primarily from the suppression of the plasma renin-angiotensin aldosterone system. Inhibition of ACE (Ki 0.4nM in rabbit lung for arginine salt of zofenoprilat) results in decreased plasma angiotensin II, which leads to decreased vasopressor activity and to reduced aldosterone secretion.

Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic with antihypertensive properties. It acts by inhibiting the renal tubular re-absorption of sodium and chloride ions, which are excreted with an accompanying volume of water. Potassium excretion is also promoted.
