    Archives des maladies du coeur et des vaisseaux, 1994, Volume: 87, Issue:10

    The authors reports an unrecognised secondary effect, but perhaps not as rare as has been thought, of enalapril: the acute abdomen. Three similar cases have previously been reported. The underlying mechanism is probably the inhibition of degradation of tissue kinins to inactive peptides as in subcutaneous and/or submucous angioneurotic oedema. Todate, this secondary effect has not been reported with other angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors. The relationship between the acute abdomen and angioneurotic oedema with primary hyperaldosteronism is discussed.

[Acute abdomen caused by enalapril].
    Praxis, 1995, Jan-24, Volume: 84, Issue:4

    This case report describes an unrecognized adverse effect of an ACE inhibitor (enalapril): attack of acute abdominal pain. This symptom was observed 3 times over a period of 5 years in a 43 year old woman, occurring 24 h after she was taking the ACE inhibitor, and disappearing 3 to 5 days after the withdrawal of enalapril.
