UNIVASC (moexipril hydrochloride) is an oral ACE inhibitor prodrug approved in 1995 for hypertension management. It works by inhibiting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), reducing angiotensin II formation and decreasing vasoconstriction, plasma renin activity, and aldosterone secretion. The active metabolite moexiprilat is approximately 1000 times more potent than the parent compound at ACE and kininase II inhibition.
