Ramipril,is a type of medicine called an ACE inhibitor.CE inhibitors work by blocking the action of a compound in the body called angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE).
Normally ACE produces another compound called angiotensin II, as part of the body's natural control of blood pressure.
Angiotensin II has two actions. Firstly, it causes blood vessels to constrict and narrow, and secondly, it reduces the production of urine by the kidneys. Both these actions increase the pressure within the blood vessels.s ramipril blocks the action of ACE, it reduces the production of angiotensin II.
