Unipril 1.25 MG Tablet 10 contains Ramipril (1.25 Mg) which works on your body in the following ways:

• ACE Inhibition: Ramipril inhibits an enzyme in your body known as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). This enzyme plays a crucial role in increasing blood pressure by converting angiotensin I into angiotensin II, which is a potent substance that narrows blood vessels and increases fluid retention.

• Reduction of Blood Pressure: By inhibiting the action of ACE, Ramipril effectively reduces the production of angiotensin II leading to relaxation and widening of blood vessels (vasodilation). This action lowers blood pressure.

• Decreased Fluid Retention: Ramipril also inhibits the secretion of aldosterone, a hormone that promotes fluid retention by causing the reabsorption of sodium in the kidneys. This action further aids in lowering blood pressure.

• Keep your Unipril 1.25 MG Tablet 10 at room temperature.

• Ensure the tablets are always guarded against light and moisture.

• Do not store in the bathroom or near a sink to avoid water damage.

• Always keep this medicine out of reach and sight of children.

• Maintain a low-sodium diet: High blood pressure can be managed better by reducing salt intake, which helps prevent fluid retention, a common cause of high blood pressure.

• Stay well-hydrated but avoid excessive fluids if you have heart failure: Drinking adequate water helps keep your body hydrated, but in case of heart failure, too much fluid intake may worsen your condition. Make sure to consult your doctor about the right amount of fluid intake for you.
