About Cardace Protect 5 Tablet
Cardace Protect 5 Tablet is an anti-hypertensive medicine primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduce the risk of having a heart attack, stroke, or heart failure. Besides this, it also lowers the raised level of bad cholesterol (especially for those at high risk of heart disease). High blood pressure is a chronic condition in which the pressure in the blood vessels is high. The blood exerts high pressure on the walls of blood vessels (arteries), leading to hypertension. Heart failure can occur when your heart cannot pump the blood sufficiently required to the remaining body. A heart attack is the blockage of blood flow to the heart muscle. The blockage is most often a build-up of fat, cholesterol, and other substances, forming plaque in the arteries that feed the heart (coronary arteries). Heart attack and brain stroke happen simultaneously, as, in a stroke, the blood supply to the brain gets interrupted, causing a part of the brain to die.
Cardace Protect 5 Tablet is made up of two medications: atorvastatin and ramipril. Atorvastatin is a cholesterol-lowering medication that inhibits the enzyme responsible for fat production in the body. It lowers bad cholesterol (also known as LDL or low-density lipoproteins) and triglycerides (TG). It raises good cholesterol levels (also known as high-density lipoproteins or HDL). Ramipril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that lowers high blood pressure by blocking angiotensin II, a naturally occurring substance that tightens your blood vessels. This relaxes blood vessels in the body, reducing the burden on the heart to pump more blood. Cardace Protect 5 Tablet reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart-related chest pain when taken together (angina).
You are advised to take Cardace Protect 5 Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending upon your medical condition.

Tell your doctor if you are sensitive to atorvastatin or have any active liver disease, active bleeding issues (like a peptic ulcer or brain haemorrhage), muscle problems (myopathy, rhabdomyolysis), pregnant or planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding.
