  • Title: Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors in patients with bronchial responsiveness and asthma.
    Author: Kaufman J, Schmitt S, Barnard J, Busse W.
    Journal: Chest; 1992 Apr; 101(4):922-5. PubMed ID: 1555463.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-one subjects with known bronchial hyperreactivity were prospectively randomized in double-blind fashion to receive one of two angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I), enalapril or spirapril, for three weeks. Spirometry and methacholine provocation were performed prior to, during, and following ACE-I usage. Three of 21 subjects developed a nonproductive cough. However, only one subject wheezed slightly. Spirometry and bronchial reactivity (PD20) were unchanged throughout the study.
