I'm considering switching from Teleact 40 manufactured by Ranbaxy to Telmikind 40 by Mankind because the latter is more affordable. Do you think it's okay to make this change? I'm curious if there's any difference between the two in terms of effectiveness or potential side effects. Could you shed some light on this for me?

View allI'm trying to figure out if there's a connection between height and the size of the ascending aorta. Like, for someone who's 6 feet tall and weighs 74 kg, what would be considered a normal size for the ascending aorta? Is there a direct link between these measurements?
For a 6 ft person weighing 74kg, the normal ascending aorta size is typically around 2.1 to 3.7 cm in diameter. There is a weak positive correlation between height and ascending aorta diameter, meaning that taller individuals may have slightly larger ascending aortas. However, this correlation is not strong enough to be used as a reliable predictor of aorta size.

I'm a bit concerned because I had a PTCA procedure about 14 months ago. Now, my doctor is suggesting I stop taking Axcer 90 mg twice daily for 5 days and just stick with Ecosprin 75 mg once a day. This is supposed to be for a CT-guided biopsy because I've got multiple lymph nodes in my abdomen. Is this safe, and should I be worried about any risks with stopping Axcer?
yes.

I've been dealing with high BP for about 8 months now. I was taking Stamlo 5 but it didn't really get it under control. So last month, I added Telma 20 to the mix and it's helped a bit with the numbers, which are now around 180185. But lately, I've been having these episodes where I can't catch my breath for a few seconds, and it feels like my heart suddenly skips a beat. It's kind of worrying and I'm not really sure what's going on. Could this be related to my medication or is it something else?
Physician opinion is advised to the patient.
