About Ramitorva Capsule 10's

Ramitorva Capsule 10's is a combination drug of blood thinners, cholesterol-lowering agents and blood pressure-lowering agents primarily used to prevent heart attack and stroke. Besides this, it also lowers the raised level of bad cholesterol (especially for those at high risk of heart disease). A heart attack generally refers to a blocked flow of blood to the heart due to the blockage of arteries. The blockage is most often a build-up of fat, cholesterol and other substances, which form a plaque in the arteries that feed the heart (coronary arteries).

It reduces the bad cholesterol (also known as low-density lipoproteins or LDL) and triglycerides (TG) and increases the levels of good cholesterol (also known as high-density lipoproteins or HDL). Aspirin is blood thinners or antiplatelet (anticoagulant) that collectively prevent clots in the blood vessels. Ramipril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme or ACE inhibitor that lowers increased blood pressure by blocking a naturally occurring substance known as angiotensin II that tightens your blood vessels, thereby relaxing blood vessels in the body and reducing overload on the heart to pump more blood. Together Ramitorva Capsule 10'sminimisess the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart-related chest pain (angina).

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Eat a healthy diet rich in soluble fibre like beans, legumes, whole grains, flax, apples, and citrus fruits.
  • Try to replace most of your saturated fats with unsaturated fats that can reduce total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol quickly. Foods like avocados, olive oil, fatty fish, and nuts contain many heart-healthy unsaturated fats, so it’s beneficial to eat them regularly.
  • Try to adopt a Mediterranean-style diet rich in olive oil, fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, and fish, low in red meat and most dairy.
  • Try to give priority to more fruits and veggies in your daily meal as these contain antioxidants that help to lower LDL - low-density lipoprotein (bad cholesterol)
  • Minimize the intake of added sugar. The American Heart Association (ADA) recommends one should not eat more than 100 calories (25 grams) of added sugar for women and children and no more than 150 calories (37.5 grams) for men every day.
  • American Heart Association recommends sodium chloride intake (table salt) should not exceed more than 2,300 mg per day as part of a healthy eating pattern.
  • As a precautionary measure, do not consume alcohol and quit smoking.
