My mom is currently taking a CTD 12.5 tablet daily as her doctor prescribed. I've heard that generic medicines can be more affordable. Is there a generic version of this tablet you could recommend for us? I'm trying to find a more cost-effective option.

I'm a bit concerned about this flickering feeling I've been having in my right chest for the past 45 days. Sometimes it also aches a little, and it happens regularly, like every 15 to 20 minutes, lasting for about 45 seconds. It's near the rib area, and I've noticed my heart's beating faster too. My blood pressure is 13086. Is this something serious? I don't have any other issues, no cough or fever, and I can breathe fine, but this has got me worried. What could it be?

I'm a bit worried because my LDL cholesterol level is 187, but all my other tests like ECG, 2D echo, blood, and urine have come back normal. What steps should I take to bring my LDL down?

To lower your LDL cholesterol level of 187, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet and engaging in regular exercise. Additionally, you can consider taking medication to help lower your LDL cholesterol. One commonly prescribed medication for this purpose is Atorvastatin, which is taken at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your specific situation.
