Medicine information
Uses & overview
Ramipril & Hydrochlorothiazide is a combination antihypertensive medicine prescribed for the management of high blood pressure (hypertension) when treatment with both ingredients is appropriate. It combines Ramipril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, with Hydrochlorothiazide, a thiazide diuretic. Ramipril helps relax blood vessels, while Hydrochlorothiazide helps the body eliminate excess salt and water through urine. Together, these actions help lower blood pressure and support long-term cardiovascular health.
