Congestive heart failure To reduce the risk of stroke, myocardial infarction and

Proteinuric non-diabetic nephropathy

Unipril reduces CV events in high risk patientsAccording to HOPE study, Ramipril significantly reduces the rate of death, myocardialinfarction and stroke in a broad range of high risk patients who are not known to have alow ejection fraction or heart failure.

…..An appropriate choice for CV patients

Unipril shows the highest survival rate among all ACEinhibitorsAfter the incidence of acute MI, patients were treated with different ACEinhibitors. Ramipril shows significant lower mortality than other ACEinhibitors.

……Better for MI patients
