Ramipril capsules are indicated for the treatment of hypertension, to lower blood pressure. Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events, primarily strokes and myocardial infarctions.

INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Ramipril capsules are an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor
indicated for the treatment of hypertension, to
lower blood pressure. Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of
fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events, primarily
strokes and myocardial infarctions. It may be used alone or in
combination with thiazide diuretics (1.1).
Ramipril capsules are indicated in stable patients who have
demonstrated clinical signs of congestive heart failure post-
myocardial infarction (1.3).
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Hypertension: Initial dose is 2.5 mg to 20 mg once daily. Adjust
dosage according to blood pressure response after 2 to 4
weeks of treatment. The usual maintenance dose following titration is
2.5 mg to 20 mg daily as a single dose or equally
divided doses (2.1).
Heart failure post-myocardial infarction: Starting dose of 2.5 mg
twice daily. If patient becomes hypotensive at this dose,
decrease dosage to 1.25 mg twice daily. Increase dose as tolerated
toward a target dose of 5 mg twice daily, with dosage
increases about 3 weeks apart (2.3).
Dosage adjustment: See respective sections pertaining to dosage
adjustment in special situations (2.5).
