Hi,
We do not recommend using both ACE inhibitors plus ARBs at the same time. As you are using an ARB (Losartan); it's not advisable to use ramipril ( ACE inhibitors ) with it.
However, if your BP is high we can use other drugs like amlodipine or beta blockers. However, do not take any medicine without consulting your Doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
