my blood pressure was a bit high and gp started me on ramipril ,after a couple of weeks I started getting pain on my left side just beneath my ribs, and I was feeling bloated , I didn't realize at first that it was the ramipril .but as I never had any pain like it before ..I googled the side effects and sure enough bloating and pain was among the side effects. also that ramipril can cause pancreatitis. I stopped taking them and made an appointment to see my gp, I also kept a check on my bp with a monitor and my bp readings were good....118/75 It took about 4 days before the bloating and pain stopped . gp told me not to take anymore.....my bp was fine so he didn't give me any other meds. it's been 2 weeks since I stopped the ramipril and sometimes I still feel a bit of a discomfort , but not as much as before. you don't know how long it takes for these pills to get out of your system...just have to wait and see
