The medication is taken orally, usually once daily, as directed by a doctor. It is essential for patients to follow the prescribed dosage and not discontinue treatment without consulting their doctor.
Common side effects include dizziness, fatigue, dry cough, and nausea. In rare cases, more severe adverse effects such as excessive blood pressure reduction, angioedema, or kidney failure may occur.
This combination is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, as it may affect fetal development. Patients with severe kidney failure or other chronic conditions should consult their doctor before starting treatment.
