Benefits of Fosinopril
Unlike other ACE inhibitors that are primarily excreted by the kidneys, fosinopril is eliminated from the body via both renal and hepatic pathways. This characteristic of fosinopril makes the drug a safer choice than other ACE inhibitors for heart failure patients with impaired kidney function resulting from poor perfusion as fosinopril can still be eliminated by the liver, preventing accumulation of the drug in the body.
