Ramipril & Covid-19
Someone sent an article from a newspaper yesterday that described certain ACE inhibitors and Ramipril was mentioned as they can make the symptoms of Covid-19 much worse. Do others subscribe to this or have anyone been told by their GP or hospital to stop taking Ramipril if they have Covid-19 or its symptoms

ACE inhibitors, AR Blockers and NCOV-19
One of the first studies investigating the association between ACE-inhibitors, AR- blockers, and outcome in NCOV-19 has recently been published. Although based on a relatively small sample size, the conclusions do appear to be encouraging: "We observed that patients receiving ACEI or ARB therapy had

Angiotensin antihypertensives and COVID-19: No clear added risk nor protection.
Yesterday in a reply I raised the possibility of whether angiotensin-related anti-hypertensive drugs, ACE inhibitors or ARBs would have any protective effect on COVID-19 infectivity, having heard that the virus uses "ACE2" as a receptor. The current NEJM issue has an article summarizing this complex

BP meds
Hi, I have been taking ACE inhibitors to control my blood pressure for a few years. As I work in a supermarket doing online shopping and come into contact with people. Am I in the "at risk" category with COVID-19? Please could you advise. Thank you.

Covid-19 and high blood pressure medication
I have just been speaking with my GP about the link between ACE inhibitors and ARB drugs prescribed for hypertension (and other conditions) and the incidence of severe Covid-19 infection (several million of us are on these meds). He said there was no proven link and these stories were just dreamed up

Coronavirus infection and medication for cardiovascular disease
Given the recent publication in the Lancet medical journal which questions whether the severity of COVID-19 is greater in patients taking ACE inhibitors, please as a matter of urgency could the BHF obtain empirical data from China or Italy to determine whether this is the case.

Best time to take Ramipril morning or bedtime?
I'm a 67 yr old woman and I have recently been prescribed Ramipril for really high blood pressure. I was given Amlodipine first, but had every side effect possible and some, then was changed to Propranolol which suited me great but when seeing a doctor because I couldn't breath properly was told it was

Sudden fatigue and aches
On Monday I felt fine by Monday night I was not sleeping and had severe fatigue and muscle aches. Was starting to worry I had some some of silent event!

How much cortisol in Adrenal Cortex extracts?
I saw some adrenal cortex extract products on iherb that you can freely buy. Most of adrenal cortex extracts have 50-100mg of Adrenal Cortex Tissue (Bovine, Lyophilized). Do anybody know if hormones are removed or there are still presented?

Blood pressure medication and certain foods
This evening I took my blood pressure and found that it was slightly raised - 134 / 77, okay nothing special about that (my norm is around 125 / 75), but what was unusual was that my pulse was down at 45. I usually record a rate of between 55 and 60, so I decided to find out what was happening. My current
