I get sound sleep.But onething I observe that I feel drowsiness while working in office or while viewing TV, inspite of sound sleep.Is it due to the effect of the medicine? Please reply.What will the alternative medicine. ## Cardace-Am contains the active ingredients Ramipril and Amlodipine. Learn more Ramipril details here. Learn more Amlodipine details here. Have you checked your blood pressure at the times you feel drowsy? I'm wondering if it may be dropping a bit low.

Can regular use of this drug lead to muscular dystrophy or muscle atrophy? I am experiencing this problem after taking this drug for almost 1.5 to 2 years with ecosprin 75 mg and rozucor 5mg post aortic dissection in early 2011. Or, could rozucor or this combination be the culprit? Please advise as I feel progressive muscle wasting taking these drugs.

Pease suggest if there would be any side effects of the above. He feels weak & his bp remains 100/80 to 90/70. ## I am not a doctor, but I can provide you with some information. The reason he is feeling weak could be due to his blood pressure being so low, when it's hitting 90/70 this can be too low for some people and can cause symptoms such as feeling weak, dizzy and tired. While most doctors will tell you the lower your blood pressure the better, this is not completely accurate. There are points where it can be too low and will cause those kinds of symptoms. In ...

I have been taking cardace 10mg. tablets 2 tabs per day for the past 3 years. Is there any side effects if taken for a long time. ## Cardace contains the active ingredient Ramipril, it is an ACE inhibitor that is used to treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions. There are always risks associated with taking any medication for a long period of time, however, if you have high blood pressure or a cardiac condition, the dangers to you are far greater if you don't use the medication to keep them under control. However, I cannot provide you any information on those risks, because at this time, long-term trials have not been done. Have you discussed this with your doctor? ## have been taking cardace 10 mg once a day for last 9 years,so far no issue ,but I am eager to know whether p...

I am 55 year old woman. I have been taking Cardace 2.5 mg for the past 1 year. I get severe coughing bouts 4 to 5 times a day and then it stops. Has anyone observed such a side effect of Cardace? ## Which one are you taking, Cardace or Cardace-H? They both contain Ramipril, but the Cardace-H also includes Hydrochlorothiazide and, if this is the one you're taking, then the coughing might be due to some dehydration occurring from the Hydrochlorothiazide. Learn more Cardace details here. Learn more Hydrochlorothiazide details here. ## Yes, Ms Tanya. I was taking cardace-H 5+12.5 and without knowing that it is causing side effect I suffered for more than a year. Then one fine morning I consulted the physician in RML, Delhi who told that to few patients it causes dry cough. He changed th...

I would like to know what side effects could arise as a result of replacing Concor 5mg with Cardace 5 mg? I have been taking Concor 5mg for the last 4 years (one tablet daily) and recently my doctor advised me to replace Concor 5mg with Cardac 5mg. ## It would be best to follow your doctor's instructions, and it should be fine to just switch from one to the other. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. Are you on any other medications? ## Can Concor 5mg and Cardace 5mg be taken together safely?

I had open heart surgery in 2006 and taking Carca 6.25 morning & Night, Clavix As75 afternoon and Lipicure-20 mg, Cardace 10 mg in the night. Now I am given TAZLOC -40. Telmisartan tablets IP 40 mg instead of Cardace-10 mg to avoid cough at times. ## Hello, Thiyagarajan! How are you doing? If your doctor prescribed them, because they felt it wouldn't cause the dry cough, then the best thing to do would be to try them and see how they work for you. The usual side effects to Telmisartan may include nausea, dizziness, hypotension and stomach pain, but not everyone experiences them. Learn more Tazloc details here. Did you discuss your concerns with your doctor?

My husband had undergone angioplasty 10 months ago. He has been prescribed Cardace 10 mg, clopilet 75 mg, ecosprin 150 mg, covance D, rosuvas 20 and amlopres AT. How long should he continue with all these medicines. Is it ok if he takes either ecosprin or clopilet as in my opinion both these medicines are for thinning of blood. Please suggest. ## First, I would like to state that this site is not medical professionals, so we cannot possibly suggest any changes or duration to his use of these medications. How long he needs to use them is something he will need to discuss with his doctor, it may even need to be a lifelong thing, but only they can decide that. Now, there is probably a reason that his doctor has him on both the Clopilet, which contains Clopidogrel and the Ecosprin, which co...
