For some insight angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and the angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) drugs both affect the renin-angiotensin hormonal system which helps regulate blood pressure.

Hope this is the information you are looking for, if not you are welcome to followup with another post.  Thanks for the question and take care.
