Salt Composition : Ramipril(2.5mg)
ETORIL 2.5MG contains ramipril which belongs to a group of medicines called ACE inhibitors (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors). It works by relaxing and widening your blood vessels and it makes easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. This helps to increase supply of the oxygen to your heart which may reduce the risk of further damage to your heart. It also improves blood flow through the small blood vessels found in the kidneys, which helps the kidneys to work more efficiently. This in turn which can help to slow down the progression of kidney damage that might result from having the diabetes or high blood pressure.
Ramipril inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme and decreases angiotensin II formation. As a result, sympathetic activity goes down, sodium and water reabsorption from the kidneys reduces, smooth muscles in the arterioles also relax. As a result, blood pressure decreases.
Ramipril is a prodrug that undergoes de-esterification in the liver to form ramiprilat, its active metabolite. Ramipril rapidly distributes to all tissues, with the liver, kidneys and lungs showing markedly higher concentrations of the drug than the blood.
