Since you were advised Rosukem A1075 by the cardiologist, it is important to follow their recommendation for your heart health. Rosukem A1075 contains Rosuvastatin 10mg and Aspirin 75mg, which helps in managing cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of cardiovascular events.

It sounds like you may be experiencing acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) causing your chest pain. In this case, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) like omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Gaviscon after meals and at bedtime for immediate relief. Make sure to avoid spicy and fatty foods, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down right after eating. If symptoms persist, you may need further evaluation by a gastroenterologist.

Hi, for high cholesterol and triglyceride levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily. Additionally, Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) can be added at a dose of 145 mg once daily to help lower triglyceride levels. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your levels and adjust the dosage if needed.
