Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am on daily dose of 10mg ramipril. BP is generally 145/90- 160/110. I have a doctor who has recommended adding 12.5mg hydrochlorathiazide.... and different doctor suggesting 8mg Coversyl Plus Hd. Are these approaches essentially the same? Do recommend one over the other or perhaps an alternative? I’m 49yr old male. Good health otherwise.

coversyl and ramipril belong to same group so don't take that combination instead u can take hydrochlorthiazide 12.5 mg. still if it is not controlled then add amlodipine 5 mg once a day.
