The first ACE inhibitor, Capoten (manufactured by E.R. Squibb) came on the market in 1984 or 1985. As for an exact date, I don't know, but it was after Capoten had enjoyed being the only game in town...

Grapefruit can interact with captopril (Capoten), a medication used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. Grapefruit juice may inhibit the enzyme CYP3A4, which is involved in the metabolism of various drugs, potentially leading to increased levels of captopril in the bloodstream and heightened side effects. It's advisable for patients taking captopril to avoid grapefruit and grapefruit products unless directed otherwise by their healthcare provider.

Yes, ibuprofen and most "NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents) like naproxen can be taken with the majority of antihypertensive agents, though some nephrologists feel that they should be avoided or only used occasionally along with "ACE-inhibitor" blood pressure medications like Capoten, Altace, Cozaar, Zestril due to their having a similar pathway of excretion from the body.
The two most common causes of swollen lips are injuries and allergic reactions.The cause that probably requires a doctor's attention more than any other is the reaction to certain kinds of high blood pressure medications, specifically ACE-inhibitors, including benazepril (Lotensin), captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), fosinopril (Monopril), lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril), quinapril (Accupril), ramipril (Altace), and trandolapril (Mavik).If you're taking these or anything similar and your lip swells up, call your prescriber and tell them about it before you have an episode in which your tongue swells up and your throat and air passages are blocked by runaway swelling. This often happens to patients whose lip swells up, although not necessarily at the same time. Ask the doctors or other prescribers if you should stop taking that particular medication (they will usually tell you to do so and replace it with a different kind of blood pressure med). They may even put you on a one-week detoxification program.Read more: What_causes_a_swollen_tongue
Pomegranate seeds are full of antioxidants which restrict LDL to oxidize which cause atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries.These seeds also act like aspirin which keep blood platelets sticking together and forming blood clots.
an allergic reaction is one thing that can cause that but the cause that requires THE MOST URGENT ATTENTION is the reaction to certain kinds of high blood pressure medications, specifically ACE-inhibitors, including benazepril (Lotensin), captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), fosinopril (Monopril), lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril), quinapril (Accupril), ramipril (Altace), and trandolapril (Mavik). If you're taking these or anything similar and your tongue swells up GO TO THE ER IMMEDIATELY -- before your throat and air passages are blocked by further swelling -- and ask the doctors if you should stop taking that particular medication (they will invariably tell you to do so IMMEDIATELY and replace it with a different kind of blood pressure med). They may even put you on a one-week detoxification program.
