Description
TRITACE 5MG Tablets contain ramipril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain heart conditions such as heart failure and after a heart attack. Ramipril works by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood and reducing the risk of strokes and heart attacks.

The usual starting dose for hypertension is 2.5mg once daily, which may be increased to 5mg or 10mg once daily based on the patient’s response. For heart failure, the starting dose is typically 1.25mg once daily, which can be gradually increased. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and do not exceed the prescribed dose.
Side Effects:
Common side effects include dizziness, headache, and fatigue. Serious side effects may include severe allergic reactions, kidney problems, and high potassium levels. Contact your doctor if you experience any severe or persistent symptoms.
