Possible stroke ?
Hi everyone I was discussing medications issues with surgery pharmacist yesterday. He asked why I was taking Clopidogrel (I am having serious oseophagal spasms) then said oh yes possible stroke. I am stunned no one has mentioned this to me. As far as I knew my GP moved me from aspirin to Clopidogrel

New blood pressure drugs
Hi all I have had a lot of issues with BP meds currently on Felodipine 7.5mg and in general they are by far the best I have used. However I am an insomniac and Felodipine has definitely exacerbated this. No sleep at all last night. GP prescribed Mirtazapine to help but I only took half a dose and was

Insomnia and Felodipine ?
Hi everyoneI have been on Felodipine for several weeks now after trying many other drugs for BP. While I feel a lot better on these drugs my existing insomnia is now off the scale!. I am now averaging 3 or 4 hours a night and over the counter sleeping pills aren't helping much. My GP says she has ran

Ramipril
I was put on Amlodopine some months ago for BP which was running a little on the high side. The medication works very well and has brought my BP down to normal with no side effects that I can say that I've noticed. It has also calmed my (8) yr old Afib down, (now permanent), to the point that I hardly

Ramipril
Briefly, I was prescribed this by my consultant to help with the pumping function/blood flow through my left ventricle. It has definitely helped as shown by a follow echocardiogram, and my consultant pleased. However, I was warned by my GP that it might give me a cough.. and it most certainly has!

New to BP meds
Iv had elevated BP for a while. Then started with migraines and slurred speech. Doctor put me on Ramipril 2.5mg and sent for MRI. MRI showed Lesions so waiting on Neurologist apt. even though its an urgent apt., could be weeks/months. Could be MS/Small vessel disease. I'm worried I have dementia onset

Runny nose - is it a side effect of meds?
Odd question but does anyone know if any of the standard meds prescribed after cardiac arrest can give you a constantly runny nose? Am on ticagrelor, aspirin, atorvastatin, ramipril, ezetimibe, bisoprolol and Lansoprazole.

Kidney blood test
Hi all I 39, workout 3 times a week, don’t smoke or drink alcohol and I had a SCAD heart attack 2 weeks ago. Completely shocked but I’m being positive. I’m now on dissolvable aspirin and Ramipril. I take the aspirin at lunch and Ramipril at night so well away from my T3 and T4 which I take first

Feeling dizzy during gardening
Hello fellow hearties. Quick question, when I kneel down, stand up, kneel back down, stand up etc, shuffling along to the next patch of weeding, over time I begin to feel more and more dizzy. I know this is a perfect excuse not to kneel down to do the weeding but does anyone else get the dizziness? I

Bisoporol at night.
Does anyone take bisoporol in the morning and at night. I take 5mg in the morning and 2.5mg at night. Bit worried because I also take 2.5mg of ramipril at night.

10 weeks in, not feeling great
I am a 57 year old woman, and had an Nstemi 10 weeks ago, and one stent fitted. I am on 2.5 bisoprolol, tricagrelor, 10 of ramipril, 80 statins and also aspirin. My ejection fraction was poor at 45 (which I found a bit upsetting when it transpired I was the lowest in the rehab class) I was on HRT before

Ramiprimil and thyroid med - timing of medication
Today I've taken by mistake Ramipril first instead of taking my thyroid medication first. I usually take first my thyroid med, wait for one hour with an empty stomach, and then take the Ramipril. How long should I wait to take my thyroid med after taking Ramipril, so my thyroid med is properly absorbed
