Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are usually a pill. There are also liquid oral solutions. If you are in the hospital, doctors there may also use a shot.

ACE inhibitor pills come in different shapes, colors, sizes, and forms. They can have letters, numbers, or both etched on them.

Depending on which type of ACE inhibitor you take, it might look very different. Medicines look different their form, dose, and which manufacturer makes them. The exact same dose of the same medicine may look very different if they are made by different companies.
