Altace tablets (ramipril) inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Inhibition of ACE results in decreased plasma angiotensin II, which leads to decreased vasopressor activity and to decreased aldosterone secretion. It is indicated for: • Treatment of Essential Hypertension. It may be used alone or in association with thiazide diuretics or with the calcium channel blocker felodipine. The safety and efficacy of ALTACE in renovascular hypertension have not been established and therefore, its use in this condition is not recommended. • Treatment Following Acute Myocardial Infarction in clinically stable patients with signs of left ventricular dysfunction to improve survival and reduce hospitalizations for heart failure.
