<p>Dose Titration Guided by Clinical Effect. A patient whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with ramipril (or another ACE inhibitor) alone or with hydrochlorothiazide (or another thiazide diuretic) alone may be switched to combination therapy with Ramipril 2.5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg or Ramipril 5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg tablet.<br />
<br />
<strong>Replacement Therapy</strong>: For convenience, patients receiving ramipril and hydrochlorothiazide from separate tablets may instead wish to receive tablets of combination of Ramipril 2.5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg or Ramipril 5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg. If necessary, the dose may be increased to two tablets of Ramipril 2.5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg or Ramipril 5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg once daily.<br />
<br />
<strong>Maximum daily dose</strong>: 10 mg ramipril and 50 mg hydrochlorothiazide (four tablets of Ramipril 2.5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg or two tablets of Ramipril 5 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg).</p>
