Enalapril? Enalepril is a common misspelling of enalapril.

Enalapril is approved to treat the symptoms of several heart and blood vessel problems, such as high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, and left ventricular dysfunction. Because this prescription medication is an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (or ACE inhibitor), it helps to relax the blood vessels by blocking a certain enzyme. It is possible to take too much enalapril. Make sure to seek immediate medical attention if you think you may have overdosed on this medication. Some signs of an enalapril overdose can include fainting or a decrease in urine output.
