I'm a bit worried about my mom. She's been dealing with Diabetes and Hypertension for about 12 years now, and shes been taking medications to keep them in check. Since last November, she started on Ecosprin AV 7520 daily. I'm kind of concerned about if there are any side effects from taking it every day and whether its necessary to have Aspirin free intervals?

I've had a heart stroke before, back in 2008, and my doctor told me to take Ranozex 1gm twice a day. He also recommended a thallium test. I'm wondering if I could switch to RANCAD 1000mg Ranolazine from Lupin Ltd instead of the Ranozex 1gm. Is it okay to use different brands of the same medication? Just want to make sure it's safe.

yes u can take the medication composition is same only brand name is different..
