Raxipril 5 Mg Capsule 10 contains ramipril (5 mg). Here's how it works in your body:

• ACE Inhibition: Ramipril inhibits the activity of an enzyme in your body called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). This enzyme is responsible for the production of a substance called angiotensin II.
• Blood Pressure Regulation: Angiotensin II narrows blood vessels and increases blood pressure. By blocking its production, ramipril helps relax and widen blood vessels. This reduces pressure within the vessels, causing a lower pressure, which makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body.
• Heart Workload Reduction: Ramipril decreases the workload on the heart by relaxing blood vessels and reducing blood pressure. This is particularly beneficial for patients with heart failure.

• To manage high blood pressure, try to limit your salt intake. Too much salt can raise your blood pressure.
• If you've had a heart attack or are at risk of one, aim to include regular physical activity in your routine. Gentle exercises such as walking or swimming can improve heart health without straining it. Always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
