why are ACE inhibitors contraindicated in pregnancy?
Why do ACE inhibitors decrease renal perfusion?

  #2

Ace inhibitors cause fetal renal abnormalities and skull abnormalities

they decrease renal perfusion probably via the hypotension and hypovolemia that they can cause. maybe this is what is responsible for the 'reversible' renal failure that they can cause in patients with renal artery stenosis.
