Zofenopril (INN) is a medication that protects the heart and helps reduce high blood pressure. It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor.[1]

In small studies, zofenopril appeared significantly more effective in reducing hypertension than two older antihypertensive drugs, atenolol and enalapril, and was associated with fewer adverse effects.[2][3]

Zofenopril is a prodrug with zofenoprilat as the active metabolite.[4]

It was patented in 1978 and approved for medical use in 2000.[5]
