Ramipres 2.5 Uses
Doctors use Ramipres 2.5 to treat High Blood Pressure, and it thus helps people with a history of Heart Failure. It also helps prevent Heart Attacks and Strokes.
High Blood Pressure
High Blood Pressure, or Hypertension, is when the force with which the blood pushes against the arterial walls is higher than the normal pressure. It may lead to severe headaches, nosebleeds, and even difficulty breathing.
Heart Failure
Heart Failure, or Congestive Heart Failure, occurs when the heart fails to pump efficiently around the body. It may lead to difficulty breathing, swelling in the face, hands, and feet, or difficulty exercising.
Heart Attack
Cholesterol may sometimes block the walls of the arteries leading to Heart Attacks. It may lead to indigestion, chest pain, and fatigue.
Stroke
A Stroke occurs when the blood supply to the brain is blocked. It may lead to issues with cognitive skills and abilities, memory issues, and a sudden lack of balance.
Working
This medicine is a type of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE). Ramipres 2.5 works by blocking the action of a substance called Angiotensin II. This chemical constricts the blood vessels inside the body.
It also raises patients’ blood pressure. Ramipril thus inhibits this chemical and widens the walls of the blood vessels, helping to lower the patient’s blood pressure.
