Frequently asked questions about Ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide

What is ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide used for?

Ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide is a combination treatment for hypertension, also called high blood pressure. Ramipril is an ACE inhibitor and hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic, and the two are used together to lower blood pressure in adults with essential hypertension. The combination has been studied in a Phase 3 trial in the United States.

What does ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide target?

Ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide targets ACE, or angiotensin-converting enzyme. Ramipril is an ACE inhibitor, meaning it blocks this enzyme to reduce blood pressure. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that works through a different mechanism to promote fluid and sodium excretion. Together the two components lower blood pressure through complementary pathways.

Who makes ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide?

Ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide is developed by Pfizer, Inc., which trades under the ticker PFE. Pfizer is the company associated with the clinical development of this fixed-dose combination for hypertension.

What phase is ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide in?

Ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide has been studied in Phase 3 clinical development for hypertension. It is an investigational combination in this development program. The Phase 3 trial evaluating the combination has been completed.

What clinical trials is ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide in?

Ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide has been evaluated in one clinical trial, NCT00355589, titled Ramipril and Hydrochlorothiazide Alone and in Combination for the Treatment of Essential Hypertension. The Phase 3 trial was randomized and double blind, enrolled adults 18 years and older of all sexes, and was conducted in the United States. It is now completed.
