Ramipril

[Ophipity]

I have been prescribed Ramipril by my GP after discovering my kidneys were leaking urine but over the past few days I keep getting hot flushes. Should I be worried?

Hot flushes are not listed in the possible side-effects for the related ACE-inhibitor (Lisinopril) that I take. Check the patient leaflet that came with yours. This could be coincidental and caused by something completely different - best check with your GP.

Thanks LeeLee. I have checked my leaflet and it does not mention hot flushes so I will have a chat with my gp.
