Hi, if your husband's heart rate is consistently fast, it is important to have him evaluated by a doctor to determine the underlying cause. One common condition that can cause a fast heart rate is supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Medications like Metoprolol (25-100mg) can be prescribed to help control the heart rate. However, a proper diagnosis is necessary to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

Question

So, I've been prescribed aspirin 75 mg by my doctor, but because of the weekend lockdown, I wasn't able to visit them. I ended up buying ecosprin 75 mg from the pharmacy instead. I'm curious, are aspirin 75 mg and ecosprin 75 mg the same thing?
