A. Captopril. B. Losartan. C. Lisinopril. D. Metoprolol.

Correct Answer is ["A","C"]

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Captopril is an Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitor, which works by inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. This leads to vasodilation and reduced blood pressure, making it effective in treating hypertension.

Choice C rationale

Lisinopril is also an Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitor. It lowers blood pressure by blocking the formation of angiotensin II, a powerful vasoconstrictor, and thereby reducing systemic vascular resistance and blood pressure.
