The medication is taken orally, usually once daily, as directed by a doctor. It is important for patients to follow the prescribed dosage and undergo regular check-ups to monitor blood pressure.

Patients should be aware of potential side effects, such as dizziness, dry cough, or fatigue. It is important to inform the doctor of any unusual symptoms.

Common side effects include dizziness, dry cough, and fatigue. In rare cases, severe reactions such as angioedema or kidney failure may occur. Patients should be informed of these risks before starting treatment.
