  • Title: Effect of sulindac on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor-induced cough: randomised placebo-controlled double-blind cross-over study.
    Author: Gilchrist NL, Richards AM, March R, Nicholls MG.
    Journal: J Hum Hypertens; 1989 Dec; 3(6):451-5. PubMed ID: 2691690.
    Abstract:
    The effect of sulindac on ACE inhibitor-induced cough was studied in eight hypertensive subjects in a randomised placebo-controlled double blind cross-over trial. There was no significant improvement in cough or sense of well-being. Blood pressure, renal function, plasma renin and ACE activity were unchanged. Sulindac however, appears to be effective in some individuals in reducing ACE inhibitor-induced cough with acceptable tolerance and few side effects. Further work is needed to elucidate the mechanism of sulindac's interaction with ACE inhibitors.
