What are ramipril capsules?
RAMIPRIL (Altace ® ) is an antihypertensive (blood pressure lowering agent) known as an ACE inhibitor. Ramipril controls high blood pressure (hypertension) by relaxing blood vessels; it is not a cure. High blood pressure levels can damage your kidneys, and may lead to a stroke or heart failure. Generic ramipril capsules are not yet available.
What is it used for? - High blood pressure (hypertension) in people already stabilised on the separate components of this medicine
Why is Altace prescribed? Altace is used in the treatment of high blood pressure. It is effective when used alone or in combination with other high blood pressure medications, especially thiazide-type water pills (diuretics). Altace works by preventing the conversion of a chemical in your blood called angiotensin I into a more potent substance that increases salt and water retention in your body. It also enhances blood flow in your circulatory system. It is a member of the group of drugs called ACE inhibitors. Altace is also prescribed to reduce the chances of heart attack, stroke, and heart-related death in people 55 years or older who are in danger of such an event. Typical candidates include those who suffer from coronary artery disease, poor circulation, stroke, or diabetes and have at least one other risk factor, such as low HDL ("good") cholesterol, high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, or cigarette smoking. If you do suffer a heart attack and develop heart failure, Altace can be prescribed to prevent the condition from getting worse.
