View allMy sister was diagnosed with an SVT problem and the doctor prescribed her calaptin 120 mg. He did an echo and an ECG and mentioned everything looked normal. But when I checked the echo report myself, it mentioned trivial MR and trivial TR. The doctor didn't mention these. Should I be concerned about them?
The presence of trivial mitral regurgitation (MR) and trivial tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in the echo report is usually not a cause for concern. These are common findings in many individuals and are often considered normal variations. Trivial MR and TR typically do not require any specific treatment and do not usually impact a person's overall health. In your sister's case, since the doctor did not mention these findings and stated that the echo was normal, it is likely that these minor regurgitations are not clinically significant. However, if you have any concerns or if your sister experiences any new or worsening symptoms, it is always best to follow up with the prescribing doctor for further clarification and guidance. As for the prescribed medication, Calaptin 120 mg is a brand name for the drug Verapamil. It is commonly used to treat certain heart conditions, including supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). The usual dosage for Calaptin 120 mg in the treatment of SVT is typically one tablet to be taken orally, once or twice daily, as directed by the doctor.

I've been taking Pentids 400 regularly for my cardiovascular issues, but now I can't seem to find it at my local pharmacy. Is there any alternative medication I could use instead?
Pentids 400 is not available, you can consider using the alternative medicine Amoxicillin 500mg. It belongs to the same class of antibiotics as Pentids and can be used to treat similar cardiovascular issues. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

My body's been acting up ever since I tried using minoxidilI started feeling heart palpitations and headaches, so I had to stop. I got an ECG done, and it showed 99 bpm, which my doctor said is sinus tachycardia. To manage it, I've been taking a beta blocker called Metoprolol, 25 mg split between morning and night for a month. But now I'm dealing with side effects like dehydration, a dry mouth, and feeling nauseous with no appetite. My sleep's all messed up too, waking up at 5:30 am just dying for some water. I stopped the medication on April 2nd, but it seems like the side effects multipliedstill facing palpitations, anxiety, stress, and all those other issues. But when I talked to my cardiologist, its like he wasn't even listening, just dismissed everything I said. Honestly, I can't focus, eat, or sleep right. Plus, my standing heart rate is hitting over 110 bpm. What should I do about this?
The side effects of minoxidil would have settled down by now .Metoprolol is for the associated anxiety only and tachycardia if any.Kindly share further details
