higher doses of ACE inhibitors

Many heart failure patients should be taking higher doses of ACE inhibitors.

ACE inhibitors improve survival and reduce hospitalization for heart failure...but many patients don't reach a high enough dose.

Aim for doses that have been shown to be beneficial in clinical trials...enalapril 10 mg BID...captopril 50 mg TID... lisinopril 20 mg/day...or ramipril 5 mg BID.
