What is this medicine?
RAMISMART 10 MG contains Ramipril, which is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), congestive heart failure, and to reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and cardiovascular death in patients at high risk. Ramipril works by relaxing blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily, and lowering the heart’s workload.
