Abstract
The paper analyzes the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in patients after prior myocardial infarction. It presents the data of controlled studies, which indicate that it is warranted to use ACE inhibitors to improve prognosis in patients. It is concluded that it is unreasonable for a physician not to prescribe ACE inhibitors to post-myocardial infarction patients with obvious or asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction and to diabetic patients (if no contraindications).
