This document discusses the use of ACE inhibitors like lisinopril for the treatment of heart failure. It covers types of heart failure, how the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is activated in heart failure and contributes to disease progression, how ACE inhibitors work to inhibit this system, potential drug interactions with medications like Entresto and rifampin, side effects like cough and angioedema, pharmacokinetics of lisinopril, and the importance of monitoring for adverse reactions and assessing other medications when using ACE inhibitors.
