About Product
ALTACE - Ramipril
ALTACE (Ramipril)
ALTACE, containing the active ingredient Ramipril, is a prescription medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke in certain patients. As an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, ALTACE works by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body.
Ramipril is an ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) inhibitor used primarily to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and congestive heart failure. It is also used to improve survival after a heart attack and to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and death in people at high risk of cardiovascular events.

Hypertension: The initial dose is typically 2.5 mg once daily. Maintenance doses range from 2.5 mg to 20 mg per day, either in a single dose or divided into two doses.
Heart Failure: The starting dose is usually 1.25 mg once daily. The maintenance dose ranges from 2.5 mg to 10 mg daily, in one or two divided doses.
Post-Myocardial Infarction: The initial dose is typically 2.5 mg twice daily, which can be adjusted to a maintenance dose of 5 mg twice daily as tolerated.

FAQs:
Can Ramipril be taken with other medications?
Yes, but inform your doctor about all other medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to avoid potential interactions.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next dose. Do not double up to make up for a missed dose.
What are the common side effects?
Common side effects include cough, dizziness, headache, and fatigue. If you experience severe side effects such as swelling of the face or difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately.
How long will it take for Ramipril to work?
Blood pressure-lowering effects are usually seen within 1-2 weeks. For heart failure or post-heart attack benefits, it may take several weeks to months.
Can I drink alcohol while taking Ramipril?
Alcohol can enhance the blood pressure-lowering effect and increase the risk of dizziness and fainting. It is advisable to limit alcohol consumption.
