I'm a 67-year-old who's been taking Revelol XL 50, but my blood pressure numbers always seem to hang around 15090. I've decided to switch to Concor 5 in hopes of getting them down to 12080. Is this a good move, and could you explain what I might expect during this transition?

View allI'm a 34-year-old who doesn't smoke or drink, and I've recently found out my triglycerides level is at 367. My doctor suggested I start taking Tonact TG, but I'm worried if this medication might cause my blood sugar levels to rise. Can you let me know if I should be concerned about this?
Tonact TG contains Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate which are commonly used to lower triglyceride levels. Atorvastatin may slightly increase blood sugar levels in some individuals, but this effect is usually minimal. It is important to monitor your blood sugar levels regularly while taking Tonact TG. The usual dosage for Tonact TG is 1 tablet once daily, preferably at night. Make sure to follow your doctor's instructions and maintain a healthy lifestyle to manage your triglyceride levels effectively.

I'm a 28-year-old female and I've been experiencing this pain between my breastbone. It happened again today while I was sleeping, and it lasted for about 3 to 4 hours. I remember feeling the same thing around 4 months ago, but it also only happens during sleep. I have no medical history to speak of. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

I'm 22 and dealing with some heart-related issues. I had my heart checked, and they found mild MVP. I was put on a beta blocker, but it hasn't really helped with the intense chest pain Ive been experiencing. They've now suggested Flavedon MR for the pain. Do you think that's the right route, or should I be considering other medication options? I'm just not sure what to do next.
For your chest pain related to mild MVP, Flavedon MR can be a suitable medication to try. It contains Trimetazidine and helps in improving blood flow to the heart muscle. The usual dosage is 35 mg twice daily. However, if you do not find relief with Flavedon MR, you can discuss with your doctor about alternative medications such as Ranolazine or Ivabradine which may be more effective for your chest pain associated with MVP.
