What is unique about Enalapril (Vasotec) among ACE inhibitors?

  1. It is the only ACE inhibitor available as an oral solution

  2. It is administered via inhalation

  3. It is the only ACE inhibitor available both PO and parenterally

  4. It has the longest half-life

The correct answer is: It is the only ACE inhibitor available both PO and parenterally

Enalapril (Vasotec) is unique among ACE inhibitors because it is the only one that is available in both oral and parenteral forms. The other options are incorrect because A- Enalapril (Vasotec) is available as an oral tablet, not a solution. B- All other ACE inhibitors are administered orally or parenterally, not via inhalation. D- Enalapril (Vasotec) does not have the longest half-life among ACE inhibitors.
