Is It Safe To Drink Beer While Taking Ramipril?
I have just been prescribed Ramipril to control high blood pressure 167/100. My hobby is brewing my own beer, and I wondered if I can still enjoy drinking 3 pints of beer once or twice a week. What would happen if I drank 3 pints of medium strength beer whilst taking this medication.

Hello,
You can take ramipril along with beer. Beer does not affect the absorption and effects of ramipril. However daily alcohol consumption is not recommended as it will worsen the general health and there will be more chance for non communicable diseases.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
