What Is The Natural Diet To Reduce High BP?
Looking to drop down from 10mgs of ramipril to 5mgs then hopefully ween off them totally. Since being prescribed the ramipril for my blood pressure, i have lost 2st 4lbs on a controlled diet. My bp is on average now 120/80 using the 10mgs, but hoping the weight loss may be a help to get off medication.
