Question 1

I'm feeling a bit worried because for the past four days, I've been taking Monotrate 10mg and have noticed an irregular heartbeat. It seems to be getting better with the medication, but it's still there. Should I be concerned about this, or is it something that will resolve as I continue with the Monotrate? What should I do next?

Visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management

Question 2

So I had this chest pain about 2 months ago, and it wasn't related to the heart. I got my ECG and 2D echo done, and they both were normal. I also got a chest X-ray, and some other blood tests like cholesterol and thyroid, and everything was normal except for high cholesterol. The pain went away after I took some medication. But now, after 2 months, I'm experiencing the same kind of chest pain. It's more moderate to mild this time, but last time it was really severe. I couldn't even lay on the bed then. This time too, my ECG checked out normal. Should I be doing more tests to make absolutely sure it's not something heart-related, or do you think it's enough for now?

Accepted Answer

Since your ECG results came back normal and you have already undergone tests like 2D echo, chest x-ray, FBS, HbA1c, and thyroid tests which were all normal except for high cholesterol levels, it is less likely that your chest pain is cardiac-related. However, if you are still experiencing chest pain, it may be beneficial to consult with your doctor to consider other possible causes such as musculoskeletal issues or gastrointestinal problems. In the meantime, you can continue taking Pantoprazole for acid reflux and Ulgel syrup for gastritis symptoms.

Question 3

I've been experiencing some pin-point pain in my chest lately, and it's kind of worrying me. It happens at different spots, like sometimes it's in the center, other times on the left or right side. The pain doesn't last long, maybe just 3 or 4 seconds, but it's accompanied by a burning sensation sometimes too. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Aciloc 150mg and Digene Syrup_

1. _Aciloc 150mg_: Ranitidine, the active ingredient in Aciloc, is an H2 receptor antagonist that reduces stomach acid production.
2. _Digene Syrup_: Digene is an antacid and anti-flatulent medication that helps neutralize stomach acid and relieve symptoms of indigestion.
3. _Combination therapy_: Taking Aciloc 150mg before meals and Digene Syrup after meals may help alleviate symptoms of indigestion and acid reflux.

_Pantocid 40mg vs. Ranitidine_

1. _Pantocid 40mg_: Pantoprazole, the active ingredient in Pantocid, is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces stomach acid production.
2. _Ranitidine_: Ranitidine is an H2 receptor antagonist that reduces stomach acid production.
3. _Comparison_: Pantocid 40mg (Pantoprazole) is generally considered more potent and longer-acting than Ranitidine. However, the choice between the two medications depends on individual factors, such as the severity of symptoms, medical history, and potential interactions with other medications.

2. _Follow prescribed dosage_: Adhere to the recommended dosage and administration instructions for Aciloc 150mg and Digene Syrup.

I'm trying to figure out if my ECG looks normal or if I should see someone about it. Could you help me understand what's going on with the T waves in leads II, III, aVF, V3, V4, V5, and V6? I'm feeling really anxious about this.
