Question
I've got a situation that's really been weighing on my mind. Someone close to me is having a heart artery valve operation, and I've learned that their valve is leaking blood. I've heard about a medication called Dilzem60, but I'm not sure if it's safe in this situation. Can you help me understand if taking Dilzem60 is advisable for someone dealing with a leaking heart valve? It would be great if you could shed some light on this.

Consult Your Cardiologist Immediately: If you suspect the valve is leaking or if you're experiencing symptoms like swelling, shortness of breath, or fatigue, contact your cardiologist immediately. Monitor Your Symptoms: Keep track of any new or worsening symptoms. Let your doctor know if you experience dizziness, chest pain, irregular heartbeats, or shortness of breath. Follow Your Doctor's Instructions: Only take the medications your cardiologist prescribes, and avoid self-adjusting the dose or stopping medications like Dilzem without their guidance.
