I'm really worried about this heart murmur that was detected during my TB treatment. I completed 9 months of medication, and an echo test came back normal. But the heart murmur is still being detected. Could the TB meds be causing this? It all started when I began taking them. What should I do?

I'm really worried about what to do if a family member, like my mom or dad, ever has chest pain, starts sweating a lot, or has pain in the arm or shoulder. What if they start vomiting too? I mean, in that moment, can I give them aspirin or sorbitrate? And if so, how much should I give? Could you explain how to properly administer it? I'm a bit anxious about this and not really sure about the right steps.

tab sorbitrate 5 mg ,sublingual is advised.
