Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor; inhibits ACE, preventing conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, reducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion, leading to decreased blood pressure and reduced cardiac workload.
Lisinopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor that decreases angiotensin II production, reducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion, leading to decreased blood pressure.
Oral, 1-4 mg once daily for hypertension; 2-4 mg once daily for heart failure.
Initial dose 10 mg orally once daily; titrate to target dose of 20-40 mg daily based on blood pressure response.

Trandolaprilat: terminal half-life ~24 hours (range 15–35 hours) for once-daily dosing; effective half-life ~6–10 hours at steady state.
Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 12 hours, with accumulation noted in renal impairment; effective half-life at steady state extends to 30-50 hours in patients with creatinine clearance <30 mL/min.
Renal: trandolapril ~33% (as trandolaprilat and metabolites), trandolaprilat ~33% (as unchanged and metabolites); biliary/fecal: ~66% of total radioactivity.
Renal excretion accounts for approximately 60% of total clearance, primarily as unchanged lisinopril; fecal excretion accounts for negligible amounts.
