Ramil Tablet 2.5 mg contains Ramipril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used to manage high blood pressure and cardiovascular conditions. It helps relax blood vessels, improve blood flow, and reduce strain on the heart, thereby lowering the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney complications in high-risk patients.

Ramipril inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), preventing the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. This leads to vasodilation, reduced peripheral resistance, and decreased blood pressure.
