Ramipril

I've recently had my Ramipril dose upped to 2.5 from 1.25 mg daily.. I've since had more in the way of chest pain. Coincidence? By the way doc thinks I have Myocarditis too, just waiting for MRI results ..The chest pain has been worse since the upped dosage tho.

Anyone had any experience of this please & can shed some light?

Ramipril caused me bad angina. At 1.25 or 2.50. I only discovered it was the cause when I got pneumonia and couldnt take it ( i never had pneumonia before or since) my bad cough went too and my doc took me off it for candesarten. No probs.

Thankyou for your reply ..It's interesting that you felt better without it .. I will try for a while longer & see how I go ..I think sometimes the meds they give you to help just hinder..Glad you found something that agrees with you & feel better for it 😁 trial & error I suppose
