Frequently asked questions FOR Bpace H
Ramipril
Q. I have been diagnosed with heart failure and the doctor has prescribed me Ramipril. Why?
Ramipril belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor group of drugs. It relaxes and widens the blood vessels, making it easier for the blood to pass through the vessels. As a result of this, the heart does not have to work more to push the blood. Since the workload on the heart is reduced, it is beneficial in heart failure. Additionally, it is also used to lower blood pressure and prevent stroke.
Q. When can I expect my blood pressure to be normal after starting Ramipril?
Ramipril takes a few hours to reduce high blood pressure but since there are no symptoms, you will not notice any difference. It takes a few weeks for the blood pressure to get fully controlled. Do not stop taking the medicine. Keep taking it even if you feel better or if your blood pressure is normalized.
Q. Can Ramipril increase potassium levels? If yes, what should be done?
Ramipril may increase potassium levels in the blood, especially if you have uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, kidney problems, and dehydration. Potassium levels may also increase in patients using potassium salts or medicines which increase potassium levels or are aged more than 70 years of age. If you have any of these conditions and are using Ramipril, you need to be careful and get regular blood tests done to monitor potassium levels.
