Can concentric left ventricular hypertrophy be reversed, and what kind of medication would be effective for it? I'm also wondering if it's okay to keep playing badminton with this condition. And what should I look for in echocardiography results to know if I have LVH?

View allI'm currently taking Clopitab and was recently prescribed Amlodipine or Cilnidipine. I've heard that mixing certain medications can sometimes affect how well they work. So, I'm worried if it's okay to take these together? Like, would it make Clopitab less effective? Should I be concerned about this interaction?
Yes, there is a potential interaction between clopitab and amlodipinecilnidipine. Amlodipinecilnidipine may increase the effects of clopitab, leading to an increased risk of bleeding. It is important to monitor for signs of bleeding such as easy bruising or unusual bleeding. It is advisable to use these medications together with caution and under the supervision of a healthcare provider.

I'm currently taking Telma 40mg twice a day as my doctor recommended, but I accidentally bought Telma 20 instead. To make up for it, I've been taking two Telma 20 tablets each time. Is this okay, or did I mess up? Should I be concerned about any risks with doubling up like this?
No, as long as the dosage remains the same, it should not cause any significant issues.
