Hi,

You can take the drugs at different time of the day in order to avoid untoward lowering of blood pressure. Ramipril can be taken in the morning and amlodipine can be taken at night. Both the medicines should be taken after food.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
