Why is Cardace (Ramipril / Tritace / Altace)prescribed?

Cardace is used in the treatment of high blood pressure. It is effective when used alone or in combination with other high blood pressure medications, especially thiazide-type water pills (diuretics). Cardace works by preventing the conversion of a chemical in your blood called angiotensin I into a more potent substance that increases salt and water retention in your body. It also enhances blood flow in your circulatory system. It is a member of the group of drugs called ACE inhibitors.

Cardace is also prescribed to reduce the chances of heart attack, stroke, and heart-related death in people 55 years or older who are in danger of such an event. Typical candidates include those who suffer from coronary artery disease, poor circulation, stroke, or diabetes and have at least one other risk factor, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels, low HDL ("good") cholesterol, or cigarette smoking.

If you do suffer a heart attack and develop heart failure, Cardace can be prescribed to prevent the condition from getting worse.

Since blood pressure declines gradually, it may be several weeks before you get the full benefit of Cardace; and you must continue taking it even if you are feeling well. Cardace does not cure high blood pressure; it merely keeps it under control.
