ANY SIDE AFFECT ## After gathering information on Cardace, I found that may be linked to Ramipril, and could possibly be one in the same pill; for its uses for treating hypertension, congestive heart failure, prevention of myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiovascular death in patients over age 55. The following are side effects of Ramipril; as I believe Ramipril is the generic name for Cardace: A possible swelling of the mouth, tongue, or throat. A low blood sugar level in patients taking other medicine for diabetes which physically shows as sweating or shakiness. Furthermore, dry cough may develop, along with dizziness, and light-headedness due to low blood pressure. Decreased sex drive. Tiredness and fatigue. and mouth dryness.

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 accidentally took a Cardace-AM 5mg tablet instead of my Citelrecine tablet, used for a cold I've had for the past 3 days at a dosage of 2 tablets per day. My blood pressure has been normal always.

How are you doing? Did you experience any adverse effects? There is never any harm in consulting a doctor, when such a thing happens and you are concerned.

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.

Are you on any other medications? ## Can Concor 5mg and Cardace 5mg be taken together safely?

Can this medication be taken on an empty stomach?
