The principal effect of these drugs is inhibition of histamine-driven production of stomach acid. Gastric acid is produced through three major pathways .One of these is stimulated by histamine. These drugs are effective antacid drugs but, because they act on only one of the pathways, they are not able to suppress gastric acid secretion completely, even at high dosages

the ACE inhibitors block the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. by doing that, it reduces the level of ATII whose main action is vasoconstriction, inducing aldosteron secretion from the adrenal cortex and cardiac remodeling. thus, ACEI will cause net vasodilation and natriuresis, both of which reduce hypertension, but also protect the heart in congestive heart failure.
hope it was helpful.

pharmacodynamics is the action the drug do to the body (e.g. "the effect"), e.g. increase/decrease blood pressure, block channels, cause depolarization etc;<br />
pharmacokinetics is what the body do to the drug which is divided into 4 subcategories: absorption, distribution, elimination and excretion
