1st day,took 2.5 mg in morning...felt fine all day,some minor effects in the evening...dizziness.....mild headache

today.......felt light headed at work,itchy legs and a cough,but i can cope with that

what's the cough all about?!! :roll:

if i get pains in my chest and my hair starts falling out then I will NOT continue the Ramapril ! fingers crossed

    When it comes to prescribing drugs , gps' are now like automatons. They prescribe what the drug companies tell them to prescribe. They dont have any in depth knowledge of the drugs and what sort of clinical trials have taken place.

    Its good that we have the internet as now we can look up these medications. Previous to the internet there was no way the public could find out about the 'poisons' that gps' were prescribing.
