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 after my recent health check-up. My ECG showed moderate ST depression, but my 2D Echo came out normal. My blood pressure was also 14590. The doctor said it might be due to anxiety and stress. Could this really be the cause, or should I be worried about something else? Any advice would be appreciated.

Yes that could be due to aniety no need to worry as your 2D echo is normal ,maintain healthy life style and follow your doctors advice
