I'm 22 and with my huge family history of high blood pressure and heart attacks from it plus my cousin who is also type 1 and similar age to me having a heart attack (She refused to take the medication offered)
I was recommended to start taking ACE inhibitors as my blood pressure was getting higher each time I went to clinic or my GP and high levels of protein in my urine.
I was taking 30u of Lantus twice daily and 2u:10 of Humalog.
Since being on Ramipril for 2.5 weeks I have been having an increasing amount of hypos and having to decrease my insulin usage.
Now I am taking 20u of Lantus twice daily and now 1u:10 of Humalog. While I'm happy for this decrease of insulin usage,
Is this normal with use of ACE inhibitors?
