Aceon® is a medicine that is commonly prescribed to help control high blood pressure. The medication, which works by blocking the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), causes blood vessels to relax, which can lower blood pressure. Aceon comes in a tablet form and is available in several strengths, including 2 mg, 4 mg, and 8 mg. Potential side effects may include back pain, cough, and upper respiratory infections.
