Ramirica 10 mg Tablet

Ramirica 10 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 10 mg of ramipril in each tablet. Ramipril belongs to a group of medicines called ACE inhibitors, which are used to help manage high blood pressure and to lower the strain on the heart and blood vessels. It may also be prescribed to help protect the heart and kidneys in certain patients who have been carefully assessed by a doctor. Ramirica 10 mg Tablet is supplied as a tablet for oral use.

How it works: Ramipril works by blocking an enzyme that makes a substance that tightens blood vessels. By helping the blood vessels relax and widen, this tablet can lower blood pressure and reduce the heart’s workload.

Ramirica 10 mg Tablet is a higher-strength ramipril tablet, so it is generally used when a doctor decides that a full-strength maintenance dose is appropriate. Because this brand is sold only as 10 mg tablets in our range, it is not a lower starting-strength option and is meant for patients whose prescriber has specifically chosen this dose based on their condition and response to treatment. The effect is not immediate, and the dose may be adjusted by the doctor depending on blood pressure, kidney function, and tolerance.

• High blood pressure
• Heart protection in selected patients
• Reducing strain on the heart and blood vessels
• Kidney protection in certain medically assessed patients

• Swallow Ramirica 10 mg Tablet whole with a glass of water.
• Take it at the same time each day if your doctor has prescribed regular dosing.
• It can be taken with or without food.
• Do not crush or chew the tablet unless your doctor or pharmacist tells you to.
• Stand up slowly after taking it, especially when you first start, because it may cause dizziness.
• Follow the exact schedule your doctor gives you; this 10 mg strength is not meant for self-adjusting doses.

Each Ramirica 10 mg Tablet provides 10 mg of ramipril per tablet. Your doctor decides how often you should take it; depending on your condition, ramipril is often taken once daily, but the exact schedule and maximum daily dose must be set by the prescriber. Because this is the 10 mg strength, it is a higher-dose tablet and should be used only as directed by a doctor.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
