Description

3,3-Diphenylpropionic acid is a synthetic compound that is used to treat high blood pressure. It is an ester of hydrochloric acid and 3,3-diphenylpropionic acid. 3,3-Diphenylpropionic acid lowers blood pressure by inhibiting the activity of angiotensin II, which causes constriction and shrinking of the blood vessels. The safety profile for this drug has been evaluated in a number of studies in which it was shown that there were no significant adverse effects on the heart or other organs. This drug also has a beneficial effect on diabetic neuropathy and metabolic rate. 3,3-Diphenylpropionic acid is not active against bacteria or fungi but has been shown to be effective against amines by binding to them and preventing their interaction with DNA.
