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 worried because I've been experiencing palpitations and when I took an ECG, it showed sinus tachycardia. My 2D echo test came back normal, so my doctor prescribed Betacap TR 20mg. After a week of taking it, the follow-up ECG was normal. Can you explain what sinus tachycardia is? Should I be concerned about any heart-related issues? I've also been dealing with anxiety for the past six months. I've attached my ECGs. Can you take a look and let me know what's going on? I'm really worried about my health.
Sinus tachycardia is a condition where the heart beats at a faster rate than normal, typically over 100 beats per minute. It is usually a normal response to stress, exercise, or certain medications. In your case, since your 2d echo test was normal and your follow-up ECG was also normal after taking Betacap TR 20mg, there is likely nothing to worry about. Betacap TR 20mg is a brand name for Propranolol, which is a beta-blocker medication that helps to slow down the heart rate and reduce palpitations. For your anxiety, you can continue taking Betacap TR 20mg as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, you may benefit from therapy or relaxation techniques to help manage your anxiety symptoms. Overall, it seems like your heart is healthy and the medication is helping with your symptoms. Keep following up with your doctor for further guidance and monitoring.
