General Drug Information and Indications

Benazepril is a drug that is used in dogs and cats with heart and/or kidney problems. Benazepril causes the small blood vessels to relax (vasodilation), which makes it easier for blood to circulate, decreasing blood pressure and the workload on the heart. It is frequently used with other heart medications, such as diuretics or beta blockers. Benazepril is used for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) in dogs. It may also be used to treat high blood pressure in cats although there are other drugs that are more commonly used for this purpose.

Benazepril is approved for use in dogs and cats in the United Kingdom, but not in the United States. When the appropriate form or dose of this drug is not available through a veterinary pharmaceutical manufacturer, it may be compounded by a specialty pharmacy.

Drug Interactions

Be sure to review with your veterinarian any medications or supplements your pet may be receiving. Pets receiving benazepril may be on multiple medications because of the severity of their health problems. Careful monitoring and adjustment of drug doses and therapies may be necessary to achieve the right balance.

Diuretics, such as furosemide or spironolactone, and other vasodilators drugs may increase the incidence of low blood pressure or change blood potassium levels.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, including aspirin, should be avoided in animals on benazepril because of the increased risk of kidney damage.
