Scientific Evidence
- Ramipril, an ACE inhibitor, works by relaxing blood vessels, while hydrochlorothiazide, a diuretic, helps the body get rid of excess salt and water. The combination of these two drugs in Ramag H provides a synergistic effect in lowering blood pressure.
- Clinical trials have shown that the combination of ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide is more effective in reducing blood pressure compared to either drug alone. Additionally, the risk of side effects such as electrolyte imbalances is minimized with the lower doses used in this combination tablet.
Additional Information
- It is important to monitor blood pressure regularly while taking Ramag H to ensure optimal control. Inform your healthcare provider about any side effects or concerns you may have while on this medication.
- Always follow your doctor’s advice on lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise in conjunction with taking Ramag H for better management of hypertension.
