No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Nadh and Ramipril in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Nadh and Ramipril

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Ramipril and Nadh in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Nadh at all — not against Ramipril, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

What Ramipril’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Nadh. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Ramipril’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Hearing loss Worth acting on
  • Memory problems Worth acting on
  • Trouble swallowing Worth acting on
  • Low sodium Worth acting on
  • Low blood sugar Worth acting on
  • A heart attack Worth acting on
  • Pancreatitis Worth acting on
  • Yellowing of the skin or eyes Worth acting on
  • Heart failure Worth acting on
  • Fainting Worth acting on

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Ramipril. Read the label on DailyMed › Nadh’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Nadh side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Nadh has no side effects.

Overlapping uses

What Ramipril Is Prescribed For, and What Nadh Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Ramipril is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Nadh is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Ramipril is prescribed for: Ramipril capsules are used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), either alone or combined with a thiazide diuretic (water pill). Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke. In adults 55 and older at high cardiovascular risk, ramipril capsules are used to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes. Ramipril capsules are also used in stable patients who develop signs of heart failure within the first days after a heart attack, to lower the risk of death and hospitalization related to heart failure.

Nadh has been studied for:

  • Hypertension studied, not established Nadh has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Nadh for hypertension

    Although there has been interest in using oral NADH for hypertension, there is insufficient reliable information about the clinical effects of NADH for this purpose.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Ramipril on your own; if you are taking Nadh for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Ramipril page

“Ramipril (Altace) is an ACE inhibitor for high blood pressure and heart protection, and its supplement list is one I would treat with real seriousness. Most interacting ingredients either deepen its pressure-lowering effect or push back against it, so readings can drift too low or creep back up.”

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Nadh is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
  • Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Nadh reference on this page ↓
  • Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Nadh and Ramipril records this page draws on were last updated June 22, 2026.
  • What “no known interaction” means: no documented interaction in the sources above — not a guarantee of safety. Supplements are studied far less than prescription drugs, so we say exactly what the evidence supports, and nothing more.

About Nadh

What is Nadh?

  • Chronic fatigue syndrome
  • Low energy and tiredness
  • Athletic performance
  • Mental clarity and focus
  • Parkinson's disease (investigational)
  • Jet lag

NADH is the active, electron-carrying form of niacin (vitamin B3) that your body uses to make energy in cells. Some people take it as a supplement for fatigue, mental sharpness, and athletic performance, but solid human evidence is limited and mostly preliminary. It appears generally well tolerated in the short term, but talk with your pharmacist or doctor before trying it.

Not applicable (a coenzyme form of vitamin B3/niacin) · Tablets, capsules, sublingual lozenges, sometimes intravenous (clinical settings)

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Nadh is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Nadh record says about it on its own.

Nadh: dosing

There is no official, standardized dose of NADH. Doses used in studies have varied, and product strengths differ from brand to brand. Sublingual (under-the-tongue) forms are marketed as being better absorbed, though strong proof for this is limited.The safest approach is to follow the directions on the product label and not exceed the recommended amount. Taking it earlier in the day may help avoid sleep problems.

Taking Nadh and Ramipril Together: Common Questions

Are Nadh and Ramipril used for the same thing?
They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together. This page lists the shared uses and how strong the evidence is for Nadh in each. That is a conversation for your prescriber, especially if Ramipril is being adjusted to a target.
Does Ramipril interact with any supplements?
Yes. Ramipril has documented interactions with 149 supplements in our database — Nadh is not one of them. The Ramipril interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
