Captopril-induced cough.
Since the advent of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (captopril and enalapril), cough has been recognized sporadically as a side effect, but has received little attention in the pulmonary literature. To emphasize that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors should be considered among possible etiologies of cough, we report recent experience with two patients and review the available experience with ACE inhibitor-induced cough.
