I'm currently on clopidogrel 75 mg and aspirin 75 mg daily. I'm thinking of switching to clopitab CV 20 mg instead. Is it okay for my health to stop the aspirin and just take clopitab CV 20 mg? Would love to hear your opinion on whether this is a good idea or not.

NO u have to continue all the medications including aspirin also.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with an irregular heartbeat pretty much all the time for the last 23 years. What could be causing this?

Irregular heartbeats can be caused by various underlying conditions. In your case, since you have been experiencing this issue for the past 2-3 years, it is important to consult a cardiologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. However, one common medication that is often prescribed for irregular heartbeats is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor). The usual starting dose for Metoprolol in cases of irregular heartbeats is 25-100 mg per day, taken orally. This medication helps to regulate the heart rate and rhythm. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to monitor your condition and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
