Accupril belongs to a class of medications called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors.

Usual Adult Dose for Hypertension: Initial dose: 10 or 20 mg orally once a day in patients not on diuretics; Maintenance dose: 20 to 80 mg orally per day, administered as a single dose or in two equally divided doses.
