high blood pressure
"58 yr old male, good health other than BP...seems to run in one side of my family..tried everything from diet, exercise, alternative meds, supplements, meditation....All helped a little but not enough.

140/90 (morning) to 160/100 (evening) readings before 2.5mg Ramipril per day...within days readings dropped by about 15 points across the board.



I was taking 5mg of lisinipril for a month but Doc changed med due to the many side effects and less effective to lower BP. 

  

I have very few side effects from Ramipril vs lisinipril... The cough, dry throat, chest phlegm thing is still present but more tolerable.



An additional change has been the more diuretic effect of Ramipril on me which may be resulting in the lower readings overall.."
