Patient summary
Altace is ramipril in hard capsules from 1.25mg to 10mg, used in the management of hypertension, heart failure and recovery after a myocardial infarction.

Inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme, preventing the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. This reduces blood vessel constriction and aldosterone secretion, facilitating vasodilation and reducing blood pressure.
