I'm really worried because my dad just had a heart attack and we're using up all our savings on his angioplasty and diabetes treatment. With the whole covid situation, it's been really tough. The medicine Vymada 50mg is pretty expensiveabout 1100 per strip. Do you know of any cheaper alternatives that can still be effective? Any advice or suggestions would be really helpful!

Question

I'm dealing with a bit of high cholesterol, and my doctor recommended taking Roseday 5 mg daily. But right now, I'm in Malaysia and can't seem to find Roseday here. Do you think it's okay for me to take Crestor 5 mg instead until I can get my hands on Roseday? Would that be safe?

Question

My dad's been taking Angised tablets, and I'm curious about what they do and any side effects we should look out for. Can you give me a rundown on how safe they are? I'm a bit worried about him taking new medication, and I just want to make sure we're informed.

Question

I've recently recovered from COVID, and I've noticed my pulse rate is usually between 55-59, but sometimes it jumps to around 60. Is this something I should be worried about? I've been on Ecosprin for the past five years after having an angiogram. Just wondering if these numbers are normal or if there's anything I should be cautious about.
