ACE Inhibitors Explained

ACE inhibitors are heart helpers—NICE says they relax arteries, dropping BP and easing strain post-event. Lisinopril or ramipril cut risk 20% by boosting blood flow. Take as prescribed—morning or night, with food if tummy’s iffy. Dry cough’s a side effect; tell your doc if it sticks. Exercise pairs great—they amplify circulation gains. Studies show they’re life-extenders in heart failure. Your ticker’s workload’s lighter—stick with it, you’re winning!
