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 have just started taking ramipril and i would like to know how much 2.5 mg of ramipril will change my blood pressure i did have a very hig reading of 260/130 and now have a reading of 145/90 is this due to the tablet? i have only taken the pills for 3 days
Usually for lowering blood pressure of 260/130 2.5 mg ramipril is not enough. But it is quite individual. If you reach 145/90 with 2.5 mg, it is a very good result.
Wishing you good health
