I'm a bit concerned because my triglycerides are higher than they should be, but I don't have any symptoms. What could be causing this and what can I do to improve my levels?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Ezetimibe (brand name Zetia) can be helpful in lowering triglyceride levels. You can take Ezetimibe 10 mg once daily to help reduce your triglyceride levels. Additionally, incorporating lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet low in saturated fats and regular exercise can also be beneficial in managing high triglycerides.

View allI'm having some issues with my medication. I was prescribed Dytor 5 tablets because I have MVP and moderate MR, but every time I take them, I start feeling really drowsy, my hands turn reddish, and my heart starts pounding. Initially, my doctor advised one tablet daily, but when I mentioned these symptoms, he suggested increasing the dosage to 12 tablets a day. However, Im still feeling dizzy all the time. Is this normal, or should I be concerned? What should I do?
Its better to switch to another tablet but better to rule out further why you are getting such symptoms and give right treatment

Yes she can take her regular dose no need to worry

I'm experiencing these palpitations alongside some gas. Could this be related to my heart or are the palpitations just caused by the gas? I was wondering if it's necessary to get an ECG. Could you give me some guidance on this?
Palpitations and gas can be caused by various factors, including heart issues and gastrointestinal problems. To address palpitations, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to consider an ECG to assess your heart's electrical activity. For gas relief, you can try over-the-counter medications like Simethicone (Gas-X) to help alleviate symptoms.
