Cardace 10 contains Ramipril (10 mg), an Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitor engineered to regulate cardiovascular hemodynamics. By inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II, it reduces peripheral vascular resistance and lowers systemic blood pressure. Furthermore, this mechanism decreases the secretion of aldosterone, facilitating sodium excretion and fluid balance. Cardace 10 is indicated for the management of hypertension, the reduction of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in high-risk patients (including those post-myocardial infarction), and the attenuation of progression in diabetic nephropathy. It serves as a cornerstone therapy for structural cardiac protection and long-term hemodynamic stabilization. Read less

Side Effects
Possible side effects and reactions
Cardace 10 Tablet contains ramipril, an ACE inhibitor commonly prescribed to manage high blood pressure, heart failure, and to protect kidney function. While effective when used as directed, it can cause certain side effects:
Common/Minor Issues :
-
Persistent dry cough: A well-known side effect of ACE inhibitors, which is typically tickling, non-productive, and persistent.
-
Dizziness or lightheadedness: Especially when standing up quickly, due to lowered blood pressure as the body adjusts to the medication.
-
Mild fatigue or headache: Temporary feelings of tiredness or mild head discomfort during the initial days of starting or increasing the dose.
When to Stop Use & Seek Medical Attention :
-
Severe allergic reaction (Angioedema): Signs such as swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, or difficulty breathing or swallowing (requires emergency medical care).

Precautions
Important precautions and warnings
Important Precautions & Safety Measures
-
Medical Supervision: Take this medication strictly as prescribed by your cardiologist or physician. Do not stop taking it abruptly, as sudden cessation can cause a dangerous rebound increase in blood pressure.
-
First-Dose Dizziness: The first dose can sometimes cause a sharp drop in blood pressure, leading to dizziness. It is often recommended to take the first dose at bedtime.
-
Blood Pressure & Kidney Monitoring: Regular monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function tests, and blood potassium levels is essential during treatment.
-
Avoid Potassium Supplements: Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes containing potassium without consulting your doctor, as ACE inhibitors can raise blood potassium levels.
-
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: Cardace is strictly contraindicated during pregnancy, as it can cause serious injury or death to the developing fetus. Inform your doctor immediately if you become pregnant. It is also not recommended while breastfeeding.
-
Alcohol & Driving: Alcohol can enhance the blood pressure-lowering effect of Cardace and increase dizziness. Avoid driving or operating machinery if you feel dizzy or lightheaded.
