Hello dear and thanks for posting your query here. Ranitidine is not for high BP, it's for acidity that's why your mother is feeling better with this tablet for her headache and nausea. But is she has high BP, then she must take some medicine for lowering it. For this, please see your doctor for some BP lowering medicine other than captopril. I hope this information would be of help to you. Thanks and all the best.
