    ACE-inhibitors are a type of drug used to treat #hypertension. They prevent angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) from turning angiotensin I to II, BUT they can trigger the cough reflex!

    If you’re having chronic cough issues with an ACE-inhibitor (drug name usually ending in -il), talk to your doctor about other options 🫀
