    Author: Czarnecka E, Pietrzak B.
    Journal: Acta Pol Pharm; 2002; 59(1):71-5. PubMed ID: 12026117.
    Abstract:
    The influence of captopril and enalapril on acute toxicity of ethanol, ethanol-induced hypothermia, ethanol sleeping time has been investigated in mice. Moreover, the combined effect of captopril and enalapril on spontaneous locomotor activity in mice has been examined. The captopril (5 and 20 mg/kg) and enalapril (5 and 20 mg/kg) were injected intraperitoneally i.p. The drugs were given as single or repeated doses for 10 days. It has been shown that the captopril and enalapril administered in single doses decreases, but chronic administration increases acute toxicity of ethanol. Captopril and enalapril in single doses enhanced, but chronic administration inhibits hypothermic effect of ethanol. Captopril and enalapril reduces ethanol sleeping time. Captopril and enalapril administered for 10 days and enalapril in a single dose 20 mg/kg decreases ethanol induced hyperactivity.
