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.

View allI'm really confused because my Echo and ECG tests came back normal, but I'm still experiencing these palpitations. I'm a GERD patient, and whenever these palpitations hit, I get really nervous. What could be causing this, and is there anything I should be doing or looking out for?
Palpitations despite normal Echo and ECG in a GERD patient could be due to acid reflux irritating the vagus nerve, leading to palpitations. In such cases, managing GERD effectively can help reduce palpitations. You can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for GERD.

I've been dealing with constant chest pain for the last two months, and I'm 32. Could this be a sign of a heart problem, or is it just gas? The pain isn't spreading to other areas, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any insights?
Based on your description of constant chest pain for the past 2 months with no pain in any other area, it is important to rule out any potential heart-related issues. I recommend you take an over-the-counter antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) for immediate relief if it is related to gas. However, it is crucial to consult a doctor for further evaluation and consider taking a low dose of aspirin for heart health.

I'm kind of worried because all of a sudden my heart started racing, and when I went to the hospital, they checked my blood pressure and gave me these BP tablets. I've been taking them, but I'm wondering if I should keep taking them or if it's okay to stop. What should I do?
Sudden increase in heart rate can be concerning. It's important to follow the advice of your healthcare provider regarding the medication. If you were given medication for high blood pressure, it's important to continue taking it as prescribed. Stopping the medication abruptly can be harmful. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects, please consult your healthcare provider for further guidance.
