I'm feeling some tightness in my heart, and after going to the cardiologist, they gave me prothiaden tablets. What exactly are these tablets for? I'm a bit anxious about what they do and why they're necessary in my case. Can you explain more about it?

View allI've had angioplasty done and have a stent implanted. My doctor recommended some drugs from companies like Sun Pharma, MacLeod, and Lupin, but they're a bit pricey for me. Are there other reputable brands that make equivalent quality medications for Rozavel 2mg, Prax A 75mg, and Voglimac GM 2mg at a lower cost? Also, can I ask the pharmacy for generic versions of cholesterol-lowering drugs if I have a prescription for the more expensive branded ones? Are generics reliable when it comes to quality assurance and control?
Substitute for rozavel 2mg: You can consider Atorva 20mg (Atorvastatin) from Cipla or Rosuvast 10mg (Rosuvastatin) from Torrent Pharmaceuticals. Substitute for Prax A 75mg: You can try Clopid 75mg (Clopidogrel) from Intas Pharmaceuticals or Plavix 75mg (Clopidogrel) from Sanofi. Substitute for voglimac gm 2mg: You may opt for Glycomet GP 2 (Metformin + Glimepiride) from USV or Glyciphage G1 (Metformin + Glimepiride) from Franco-Indian Pharmaceuticals. Regarding generic cholesterol-reducing drugs, yes, you can purchase generic versions of cholesterol-lowering medications with a prescription from your doctor. Generic medications are generally considered to be equivalent in quality to their brand-name counterparts as they undergo the same rigorous testing for quality assurance (QA) and quality control (QC) by regulatory authorities.

I'm feeling this strange pulsating sensation in my left ribs that goes down my armpit, and I'm having some chest pain as well. It's pretty unsettling, and on top of that, my left hand and leg keep sweating. This mostly happens at night, and I notice my heart is beating faster during these episodes. Any ideas on what might be causing this?
