I'm trying to figure out the difference between Telma and Covamlo. Is Covamlo just Telma with something else added, or is it a completely different medication? I'm a bit confused about whether they contain the same things. Can you help clarify this for me?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Telma and Covamlo are both medications used to treat hypertension, but they contain different active ingredients. Telma contains the active ingredient Telmisartan, while Covamlo contains a combination of Amlodipine and Telmisartan. So, Covamlo does have Telma salt (Telmisartan) along with Amlodipine. The combination of Amlodipine and Telmisartan in Covamlo helps in better control of blood pressure compared to Telma alone.

I'm a bit worried about my ECG results that I attached. Is there anything serious I should be concerned about? I noticed the T axis is at 1. Can you give me some advice on what this might mean?
Based on the information provided, a T axis of 1 in an ECG is within normal limits and is not typically considered a serious issue. However, it is important to consider the entire ECG report and any symptoms you may be experiencing for a comprehensive evaluation. If you have any concerns, it is recommended to follow up with your healthcare provider for further assessment and guidance.

I've recently recovered from COVID, and I've noticed my pulse rate is usually between 55-59, but sometimes it jumps to around 60. Is this something I should be worried about? I've been on Ecosprin for the past five years after having an angiogram. Just wondering if these numbers are normal or if there's anything I should be cautious about.
A pulse rate between 60-100 beats per minute is generally considered normal. A pulse rate of 55-60 may be on the lower side, but it can still be considered normal for some individuals, especially those who are physically fit. Since you have a history of taking Ecosprin after an angiogram, it's important to note that Ecosprin (aspirin) can sometimes lower the heart rate. If you are not experiencing any other symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath, a pulse rate of 55-60 may not be concerning. However, it's always a good idea to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and monitoring.
