I've never heard of using ramapril as a treatment for RLS. I take it for my blood pressure. I use Temgesic to treat my RLS.

I have tried Ramapril but only for blood pressure. Unfortunately my face began to swell and over a period of 12 months this started to increase into a daily basis. My GP eventually referred me to a lovely Specialist, that as soon as he saw the photos on my phone, he said "You take Ramapril?" I had to stop taking immediately and the swelling did also!
