This could be a sign of a condition called paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), where your heart suddenly beats very fast for a short period of time. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further management.

Question 6

I'm a bit worried about my cholesterol levels; my total cholesterol is 238, triglycerides are 285, HDL is 50, VLDL is 57, and LDL is 131. Do you think it's okay if I start taking Tonact TG to help maintain my levels?

Accepted Answer

Based on your cholesterol levels, it seems like you have high triglycerides and LDL cholesterol. Tonact TG is a combination medication that contains Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate, which can help lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing HDL cholesterol. I would recommend taking Tonact TG as prescribed by your doctor. The usual dosage for Tonact TG is one tablet daily, preferably at bedtime. It is important to follow a healthy diet and exercise regularly in addition to taking the medication to effectively manage your cholesterol levels.
