ramipril question
12 Answers
do any of you who take ramipril suffer from heart palpitations?
i've been on this for about 7 years and only had the cough side effect, which by and large has gone now. however, about 2-3 weeks ago i started getting quite violent heart palps about one to two hours after taking my daily dose of ramipril. i take it about 8pm and the palps are still there when i go to bed but have disappeared by morning and i don't get any during the day. heart palps are mentioned as a side effect of this drug but given that i've been taking it for so long, i would have thought they would have manifested themselves before now.
anyone??

i would have thought it unrelated to the ramipril too, but it's odd that it only happens after i've taken it.
