Cardace Protect 5 Tablet 10's 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 10's 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 10's 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 10's 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.

Cardace Protect 5 Tablet 10's is composed of two medicines, namely: Atorvastatin and Ramipril. Atorvastatin is a cholesterol-lowering medication that blocks the enzyme required to make fat in the body. It reduces bad cholesterol (also known as low-density lipoproteins or LDL) and triglycerides (TG). It increases good cholesterol levels (also known as high-density lipoproteins or HDL). Ramipril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme or ACE inhibitor that lower 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 which reduces overload on the heart to pump more blood. Together Cardace Protect 5 Tablet 10's reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart-related chest pain (angina).

Hypertension: High blood pressure is a condition in which the pressure in the blood vessels is high. The blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels leading to hypertension. It is expressed as systolic/diastolic blood pressure. Systolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries when the heart beats or pumps blood. Diastolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries between the heartbeats. Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg) by a blood pressure monitor (sphygmomanometer). Normal blood pressure is 120/80 mmHg. Symptoms of high blood pressure include headache, dizziness, nosebleeds, changes in vision, chest pain, weakness, and dyspnea (shortness of breath). However, most of the time, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none. Heart failure occurs when the heart cannot pump sufficient blood to the remaining of the body.
Heart attack: 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, forming plaque in the arteries that feed the heart (coronary arteries).
Stroke: It occurs when the blood and oxygen supply to the brain is limited or stopped. When the brain does not receive sufficient oxygen and nutrients, it dies within a few minutes. If not treated early, it is a life-threatening condition that can lead to brain damage, coma, and even death.
