Enalapril is an ACE inhibitor. ACE stands for angiotensin converting enzyme. Enalapril is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and children who are at least 1 month old. Enalapril is also used to treat congestive heart failure in adults.

This disorder can decrease the heart's ability to pump blood to the body.
