View allI've been taking Pentids 400 regularly for my cardiovascular issues, but now I can't seem to find it at my local pharmacy. Is there any alternative medication I could use instead?
Pentids 400 is not available, you can consider using the alternative medicine Amoxicillin 500mg. It belongs to the same class of antibiotics as Pentids and can be used to treat similar cardiovascular issues. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

I've been experiencing some weird noises coming from my chest and stomach, kind of like gurgling sounds. It started happening a lot, then stopped for about a month, but now it's back again.
