Many categories of drugs are used today for hypertension such as captopril which belongs to ACE inhibitors family and hydrochlorothiazide which consider a diuretic drug.In this literature review, we will focus on their pharmacological effect as well as most of the recent reported analytical methods that have been established for their determination in their pure form, combination form with other medications, combined form with its metabolites, and in biological materials.
One of the most common diseases in the world is Hypertension, which is usually defined as persistent blood pressure (BP) of 140/90 mm Hg in the medical office, and it is one of the leading causes of premature morbidity and mortality in the United States [1,2]. Hypertension has no recognized cause and raises the risk of brain, cardiac, and renal problems. In developed countries, the chance of getting hypertensive (blood pressure >140/90 mm Hg) during one's lifespan is greater than 90%. Other cardiovascular risk factors such as age, obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, and hyperlipidaemia frequently coexist with essential hypertension [3]. Many categories of drugs are being used to control hypertension as a diuretic, calcium channel blocker (CCB), angiotensinconverting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, beta-blocker, and angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). Moreover, even though diuretics were first used to treat hypertension nearly five decades ago, they are still an important therapy option today. Despite the fact that their popularity as preferred antihypertensive medications have waned, diuretics are still routinely used to treat hypertension, either alone or in combination with other types of drugs [4]. Thiazide diuretics as hydrochlorothiazide are the most commonly prescribed diuretics for hypertension, but other classes of diuretics may be useful in alternative circumstances. Although diuretics are no longer considered the preferred agent for the treatment of hypertension in adults and children, they remain acceptable firstline options [5]. In addition, ACE inhibitors, like Captopril, a drug that has been widely used to treat hypertension and congestive heart failure in individuals, which inhibit ACE activity and thereby reduce the synthesis of angiotensin II, are also used. Furthermore, ACE inhibitors limit the breakdown of bradykinin, enhancing its vasodilatory and other effects [6,7].
Captopril (CAP) (figure 1), is an (ACE) inhibitor, and it has been shown in animal and human trials to reduce left ventricular remodeling (structural enlargement and alterations) following myocardial infarction, which can lead to left ventricular dysfunction and an increased risk of death. In several animal studies, ventricular remodeling(structural changes such as infarct expansion and thinning caused by stretching of the infarct zone and rearrangement of myocytes) was reduced after myocardial infarction, and survival in the rat model of myocardial infarction was significantly improved.
These findings have now been verified in human trials and are thought to be the result of CAP's balanced reduction in preload and afterload, other processes such as a reduction in coronary blood flow, increase prostaglandin synthesis, limit catecholamine release, and potentiation of bradykinin action [6, 8, 9]. CAP lowers plasma angiotensin II and raises angiotensin I concentrations, and this leads to increasedplasma renin activity or renin concentration, and decreased aldosterone concentration or urinary aldosterone excretion, respectively [10]. CAP has an oral bioavailability of around 60% in healthy fasting volunteers, and co-administration of food or antacids lowers CAP bioavailability by 25 to 50%. The peak plasma CAP concentration at 1 hour after delivery [6].
Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) (figure 1)is an anti-hypertensive diuretic drug, it does its action via the prevention of sodium reabsorption as it blocks the membrane [11, 12]. Stimulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAAS) and sympathetic nerve systems are results of the decrease in cardiac output caused by thiazide-associated volume depletion, leading to progressive salt and NCCT (the electroneutral sodium-chloride cotransporter) which is founded on the distal convoluted tubule's apical water retention. The compensatory salt and water reabsorption brings the ECF volume to baseline after 4-6 weeks. Surprisingly, thiazide's antihypertensive impact persists despite normalization of ECF volume due to a decrease in peripheral vascular resistance [13, 14]. The factors involved for vasodilation and long-term blood pressure reduction are unclear, but they appear to involve both a direct and indirect action on the vascular endothelium and/or muscular [15]. It has a lower duration of action and is less potent than ACE inhibitors [16, 17]. Moreover, hydrochlorothiazide Increases hydrogen and potassium ion secretion and calcium reabsorption as it increases the expression of a sodium-calcium exchange channel [18]. Thiazide diuretics can be given once daily or every other day in some cases. The initial dose of hydrochlorothiazide can range from 6.25 to 12.5 mg per day, with some people later requiring doses of up to 25 to 50 mg per day. Thiazides lose efficacy when excessive salt is consumed, in patients with renal failure, and in patients using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications [19].
We have reported before review articles for many analytical techniques that have been used for the determination of important drugs in different forms [20-49]. As such, to continue our strategy of reviewing the analytical methods, in this review article, CAP and HCTwhich are usually prescribed as a combined dosage form have been studied in respect of pharmacology, mode of action and most reported analytical methods that have been developed for determination of both drugs in different matrices.
