Accupril (Quinapril) is often prescribed to treat hypertension and/or to treat heart failure. This medication belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor class; it works to prevent angiotensin I from converting to angiotensin II. Low levels of angiotensin II results in an increase in plasma renin activity and decrease of aldosterone secretion. As a result, blood pressure is reduced. Some common side effects of Accupril include dizziness, lightheadedness, numbness, shortness of breath, kidney problems, upset stomach and allergic reactions. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of these side effects. Avoid activities that require you to be alert, such as driving, while starting this medication. Rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down to avoid falling or fainting. Monitor blood pressure regularly. Take this medication as directed by your doctor. Please always consult your pharmacist for possible side effects and precautions before you take this medication. If you experience any serious effects, please seek medical attention promptly.
