 | | Ramipril reduced the risk of a combined microvascular outcome of overt nephropathy, dialysis, or laser therapy by 16% (129, p=0·036). | | | Of surviving participants at 1 year, 1486 (84%) patients in the ramipril group and 1516 (88%) in the placebo group were still taking study drugs, as were 1045 (65%) and 992 (66%), respectively, at the end of the study. | | | Ramipril also lowered the risk of overt nephropathy, renal failure, or laser therapy. |

| | Because the hypotensive effect of ramipril is achieved through vasodilation and effective hypovolemia, it is reasonable to treat ramipril overdose by infusion of normal saline solution. | | | Laboratory determinations of serum levels of ramipril and its metabolites are not widely available, and such determinations have, in any event, no established role in the management of ramipril overdose. | | | Of the total number of patients who received ramipril in US clinical studies of ALTACE 11.0% were 65 and over while 0.2% were 75 and over. |

| | Results announced in 1999, showed ramipril reduced the risk of cardiovascular deaths by 25 percent, heart attack by 20 percent, and stroke by 32 percent, Dr. Mathew reports. | | | In this HOPE sub-study, researchers examined the electrocardiograms (ECG) of 8,281 patients at the beginning and end of the four-and-a-half-year study, comparing the prevalence, regression or development of LVH, together with patient outcomes such as heart attacks, stroke and heart failure. | | | The rate of strokes, heart attacks and cardiovascular deaths among those who did not develop LVH or experienced regression was 12.3 percent, while the rate was 15.8 percent among individuals who developed LVH or experienced no regression. |

| | Ramipril - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | ACE inhibitors lower the production of Angiotensin II, therefore relaxing arterial muscles while at the same time enlarging the arteries, allowing the heart to pump blood easier, and increasing blood flow due to more blood being pumped into and through bigger passageways. | | | Ramipril (marketed as Tritace® or Altace®) is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, used to treat high blood pressure and congestive heart failure. | | | The half-life of ramiprilat is variable (3 - 16 hours), and is prolonged by heart and liver failure, as well as kidney failure. |

| | The Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor Ramipril Is Found to Prevent Cardiovascular Events in Diabetes Patients ... |
| | The researchers concluded that ACE inhibition with ramipril represents a new macrovascular and microvascular preventive therapy for diabetes patients, and that the preventive effects of ramipril for macrovascular disease are independent of changes in blood pressure. | | | Ramipril was found to significantly reduce the risk of nephropathy (as defined by an albumin-creatinine ratio >36 mg/mmol) by 22% (P=0.045), and overt nephropathy, laser therapy for diabetic retinal disease, or renal dialysis by 15% (P=0.05). | | | To address the possibility that the effect of ramipril was due to its well-known blood pressure–lowering effect, the researchers controlled for change in blood pressure during the study and found that ramipril still reduced the risk of the primary outcome by 25%. |
