Tritace 5mg tablets contain ramipril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor taken to lower high blood pressure, prevent heart failure progression, and reduce cardiovascular risk after a heart attack.
Uses
Under medical supervision, Tritace 5mg is used to help:
- Lower dangerously high blood pressure
- Control hypertension resistant to other drugs
- Prevent worsening of systolic heart failure
- Reduce future CV events in high-risk heart patients
Mechanism of Action
Ramipril prevents the production of angiotensin II, a vasoconstrictor that narrows blood vessels leading to lowered blood pressure. Widened arteries enhance organ oxygenation.
Benefits
Potential advantages of Tritace over other antihypertensives include:
- Reverses key mechanisms underlying hypertension
- Protective benefits for vital organs like heart and kidneys
- Delaying dialysis needs in diabetic kidney disease
- Once daily low-dose treatment enhancing compliance
Dosage
The standard Tritace dosage is 2.5-10mg given once daily. Consistently take Tritace at the same time per physician instructions, even if feeling well.
Warning Signs
Promptly alert your doctor if swelling, shortness of breath, exhaustion, changes in heart rate or fainting occurs when on Tritace therapy.
