High blood pressure
Dear DR
I have a high blood pressure with no other cardiac problem for which I have taking Ramipril 5 mg & Ecosprin 75 once in a day ( I am not taking any other medication for any other disease ) from last 5 - 6 years after taking the medication my Avg blood pressure remains on 130-135 but from some time my both arm have little red rashes. I listen from somewhere it is side effects of ecosprin which can become serious as well .so can I stop taking ecosprin or tapering it pl guide what to do
Thanking you
Regards

I need to know why ecosprin was started in the first place? Also need to confirm if these rashes are ecosprin related or not. Consult online directly for further evaluation and management

Hi. You can stop ecosprin without tapering and continue ramipril for hypertension.
