View allI'm dealing with some really scary chest pain right in the middle and opposite of my back and it's making it hard to breathe and I feel so weak. We're in complete lockdown here and I saw a pulmonologist a couple of months ago who put me on some meds like Azithral 500, Digihaler FB200, a flubloc nasal spray, cilapam ls, Clonil, and Hifenact. He said to always continue 2, 4, and 5. But yesterday it got so bad, my left chest and hand weren't working properly, so I rushed to a nearby medical place and they gave me two injections. I got an ECG and chest X-ray done, and both came back normal. I've quit smoking recently, which is good, but I can't find those meds anywhere here. Can you suggest alternatives or anything extra that might help? There's no pulmonologist around and I'm really worried.

I'm wondering if it's safe to use a generic substitute that has the same active ingredients for Rozavel 20 mg, Praxa 75, and Volgimac GM2 tablets after having a stent placed. Is there anything specific I should be cautious about with these generics in my situation?
Yes, it is generally safe to use generic substitutes with the same API as long as they are prescribed by your healthcare provider. For Rozavel 20 mg, you can use the generic substitute called Rosuvastatin 20 mg. For Praxa 75 Volgimac gm2 tablets, you can use the generic substitute called Clopidogrel 75 mg. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and administration of these medications after stenting.

I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest, and I found out that my ESR is 25. My vitamin D3 level is really low at 3.75. I got a CT scan of my lungs, and everything came back normal. I'm curious if taking vitamin D3 supplements will help with this chest pain, or do you think I should see a cardiologist about it?
