REHANZIL is a medication commonly prescribed to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) and certain heart-related conditions. Its active ingredient is Ramipril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. Ramipril works by relaxing blood vessels, which helps reduce the amount of work the heart has to do and lowers blood pressure. This, in turn, helps prevent complications such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney problems in individuals with high blood pressure or heart disease. REHANZIL is often used in combination with other medications or lifestyle changes, such as a healthy diet and regular exercise. Like other ACE inhibitors, it may cause side effects such as dizziness, elevated blood potassium levels, or a persistent cough, so it's important for patients to follow their healthcare provider's instructions closely.
