An ACE inhibitor is a drug that lowers blood pressure by blocking the enzyme responsible for converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a powerful vessel constrictor. By preventing this conversion, arteries relax and blood pressure decreases. These drugs are used in hypertension and heart failure.
