I'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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI'm really curious about something regarding a heart failure patient who has COPD, severe LV dysfunction, hypothyroidism, hypertension, and hyponatremia. Why would Montair LC be prescribed in this case? I've heard it being used for respiratory conditions, but I'm not sure how it fits into the treatment for someone with such a complex medical history. Could you help me understand?
Montair LC is given to heart failure patients with COPD, severe LV dysfunction, hypothyroidism, HTN, and hyponatremia to help manage their asthma symptoms. Montair LC is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Levocetirizine. Montelukast helps in reducing inflammation in the airways, which can be beneficial for patients with COPD and asthma. Levocetirizine is an antihistamine that can help relieve symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itching caused by allergies. The dosage of Montair LC can vary depending on the patient's condition, so it is important to follow the prescribed dosage by your healthcare provider.

I'm Mukesh and I've been dealing with some health issues for the last three years. My doctor told me my blood pressure is high, but my ECG is normal. My cerum creatinine is 0.91, and cholesterol levels reported in February 2017 are at t.col130, HDL 44.1, triglycerides 113.9, LDL 63.12, and VLDL 22.78. The chest X-ray came back normal too. I've been taking Tenolol 50 and Anxit 0.25 as prescribed, but I'm still having the same issues and sometimes I have trouble breathing. Could you help me understand what's going wrong and if there's anything else I should be doing?
Mukesh, given your history of high blood pressure and normal test results including ECG, cholesterol levels, and chest X-ray, it's important to manage your hypertension and associated symptoms effectively. Tenolol (a beta-blocker) and Anxit (an anxiety medication) are useful, but if your symptoms persist, further evaluation is needed. Breathing problems can be related to anxiety, uncontrolled blood pressure, or other underlying conditions. I recommend following up with your healthcare provider to reassess your treatment plan. They may adjust your medications, explore other causes for your symptoms, and possibly refer you to a specialist if needed.
