1. What is Ramipril/Bisoprolol Egis and what is it used for
Ramipril/Bisoprolol Egis hard capsules contain two different active substances, ramipril and bisoprolol, in a single capsule. Both substances help control high blood pressure:
- Ramipril belongs to a group of medications called angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors). It works by reducing the production of substances that can raise blood pressure. It makes the blood vessels relax and widen, making it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body.
- Bisoprolol belongs to a group of medications called beta-blockers. These medications work by affecting the body's response to certain nerve impulses, mainly in the heart. As a result, bisoprolol slows the heart rate and makes the heart pump blood more efficiently throughout the body.
Ramipril/Bisoprolol Egis hard capsules are a medication used in adults to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) or hypertension with chronic coronary artery disease (a disease in which the blood supply to the heart is reduced or blocked) in patients with
- certain diseases that affect the heart and blood vessels (history of coronary heart disease or stroke, or peripheral vascular disease) or
- diabetes with at least one cardiovascular risk factor, and/or
- chronic heart failure with left ventricular dysfunction (a disease in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs, leading to shortness of breath and swelling) to reduce the risk of cardiac events, such as myocardial infarction in patients who have already suffered a myocardial infarction.
Your doctor may prescribe a fixed-dose combination of Ramipril/Bisoprolol Egis hard capsules if you are already taking ramipril and bisoprolol at the same dose and frequency for at least four weeks, but as separate products.
2. What you need to know before taking Ramipril/bisoprolol Egis
Do not takeRamipril/bisoprolol Egishard capsules:
- if you are allergic to ramipril, any other ACE inhibitor medicine, bisoprolol, or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
The signs of an allergic reaction may include skin rash, difficulty swallowing or breathing, swelling of the lips, face, throat, or tongue.
- if you have ever had a severe allergic reaction called “angioedema”. The signs include itching, hives, red marks on the hands, feet, and throat, swelling of the throat and tongue, swelling around the eyes and lips, difficulty breathing and swallowing.
- if you have recently taken or are currently taking sacubitril/valsartan, a medicine used to treat a type of long-term (chronic) heart failure in adults.
- if you are undergoing dialysis or any other type of blood filtration. Depending on the machine used, treatment with ramipril/bisoprolol may not be suitable for you.
- if you have kidney problems where the blood flow to the kidney is reduced (renal artery stenosis),
- if you are pregnant for more than 3 months (it is also best to avoid ramipril/bisoprolol at the beginning of pregnancy; see the section 'Pregnancy and breastfeeding').
- if your blood pressure is abnormally low or unstable. Your doctor should assess this.
- if you have diabetes or kidney function disorders and are being treated with a blood pressure-lowering medicine that contains aliskiren.
- if you have acute heart failure or if your heart failure worsens, requiring the injection of medicines into a vein that increase the heart's contraction force.
- if you have cardiogenic shock, which is a severe acute heart condition caused by abnormal heart function, leading to low blood pressure and circulatory failure.
- if you have certain heart conditions that cause a very slow heart rate or irregular heartbeats (second or third degree atrioventricular block without a pacemaker, sinoatrial block, sick sinus syndrome).
- if you have a slow heart rate, which causes discomfort.
- if you have severe asthma.
- if you have severe blood circulation problems in the limbs (such as Raynaud's syndrome), which can cause numbness, tingling, or discoloration of the fingers and toes when exposed to cold.
- if you have an untreated phaeochromocytoma, which is a rare tumour of the adrenal gland's medulla.
- in case of a metabolic disorder where there is too much acid in the blood (metabolic acidosis).
If you are unsure, consult your doctor before taking ramipril/bisoprolol.
Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take ramipril/bisoprolol.
You should inform your doctor if you have or have had any of the following diseases. It is possible that your doctor may want to take special measures (e.g., administer additional treatment or perform more frequent checks):
- if you have less severe respiratory diseases, such as asthma or other chronic obstructive pulmonary disease;
- if you have diabetes;
- if you are on a strict diet or fasting;
- if you are undergoing treatment to reduce the effects of an allergy to bee or wasp stings (desensitization). This medicine may make it more likely that you experience an allergic reaction or that the reaction is more severe.
- if you have heart rhythm disorders or vascular muscle spasms, which can cause coronary perfusion disorders (Prinzmetal's angina or first-degree atrioventricular block);
- if you have heart failure or any other heart problem;
- if your heart or brain has a deficient oxygen supply;
- if you have less severe blood circulation problems in the limbs;
- if you have or have had a scaly skin rash (psoriasis);
- if you have thyroid disorders. Ramipril/bisoprolol may hide the symptoms of an overactive thyroid;
- in case of treated phaeochromocytoma, which is a rare tumour of the adrenal gland's medulla;
- if you are going to receive anaesthesia. It may be administered for an operation or for any dental procedure. You may need to stop treatment a day in advance; ask your doctor for advice,
- if you have angioedema (severe allergic reaction with swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat with difficulty swallowing or breathing). This can occur at any time during treatment. If you have such symptoms, you must stop taking ramipril/bisoprolol and see a doctor immediately.
- if you have abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhoea. This could be a sign of intestinal angioedema;
- if you are black, as you may have a higher risk of angioedema, and this medicine may be less effective in lowering your blood pressure than in patients who are not black;
- if you are taking any of the following medicines, which may increase the risk of angioedema:
- vildagliptin and other medicines belonging to the class of so-called gliptins (used to treat diabetes),
- racecadotril (used to treat diarrhoea),
- sirolimus, everolimus, temsirolimus, and other medicines belonging to the class of so-called mTOR inhibitors (used to prevent organ rejection after transplantation or to treat cancer).
- if you are elderly;
- if you have kidney problems (including kidney transplantation);
- if you have liver problems;
- if you have aortic and mitral valve stenosis (narrowing of the valve that allows blood to leave the heart or narrowing of the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart) or renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the artery that supplies blood to the kidney);
- if you have lost a lot of body salts or fluids (due to illness/vomiting, having diarrhoea, sweating more than usual, following a low-salt diet, taking diuretics (water tablets) for a long time, or having undergone dialysis);
- if you have high levels of potassium in your blood (as shown by blood test results);
- if you are taking medicines or have diseases that can lower the levels of sodium in your blood. Your doctor may perform periodic blood tests, especially to check the levels of sodium in your blood, particularly if you are elderly;
- if you have a collagen vascular disease (connective tissue disease) such as systemic lupus erythematosus or scleroderma;
- if you are taking any of the following medicines used to treat high blood pressure:
- an “angiotensin II receptor blocker” (ARB) (also known as sartans, e.g., valsartan, telmisartan, irbesartan), especially if you have kidney problems related to diabetes.
- aliskiren.
Your doctor may check your kidney function, blood pressure, and the amount of electrolytes (e.g., potassium) in your blood at regular intervals. See also the information under the heading “Do not take Ramipril/bisoprolol Egis hard capsules”.
- You must inform your doctor if you think you are (or might become) pregnant. Ramipril/bisoprolol Egis is not recommended during the first 3 months of pregnancy and must not be taken if you are pregnant for more than 3 months, as it may cause serious harm to your baby if used during this stage (see section “Pregnancy and breastfeeding”).
