Ramipril 5mg Capsules, 28 Capsules

Ramipril 5mg capsules are used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. They work by relaxing the blood vessels and reducing the amount of work that the heart has to do. This can help to reduce blood pressure and make it easier for the heart to pump blood around the body. Ramipril 5mg capsules are also used to treat kidney problems caused by type 2 diabetes.

Ramipril 5mg capsules are generally well tolerated but side effects can include headache, dizziness, and feeling tired. Some people may also experience a dry cough. If you experience any side effects, please speak to your doctor or pharmacist.

If you are looking for a treatment for high blood pressure or heart failure, then speak to your doctor about Ramipril

Ramipril capsules work by:
 Decreasing your body’s production of substances that could raise your blood pressure
 Making your blood vessels relax and widen
 Making it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body

Ramipril capsules can be used:
 To treat high blood pressure (hypertension)
 To reduce the risk of you having a heart attack or stroke
 To reduce the risk or delay the worsening of kidney problems (whether or not you have diabetes)
 To treat your heart when it cannot pump enough blood to the rest of your body (heart failure)
 As treatment following heart attack (myocardial infarction) complicated with heart failure
