Ramp H Tablet

Introduction

Ramp H Tablet combines two active ingredients: Ramipril (5mg) and Hydrochlorothiazide (25mg). Ramipril is an ACE inhibitor that helps relax blood vessels, while Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic (water pill) that reduces excess salt and fluid in the body. This combination is commonly used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and prevent complications like heart failure and stroke. Ramp H Tablet works effectively to manage blood pressure and promote heart health.
