I'm often finding my pulse rate hitting around 110 per minute even when I'm just resting. My doctor prescribed Betacap TR 40 and mentioned it might just be anxiety. Do you have any advice on whether there are other medications I should consider or any specific tests I should look into to better understand what's going on?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Your doctor has prescribed you Betacap TR 40 for your high pulse rate, which is likely due to anxiety. This medication contains Propranolol and helps in reducing heart rate and controlling symptoms of anxiety. You can take it as prescribed by your doctor. In addition to medication, you may also consider some lifestyle modifications to help manage anxiety and lower your pulse rate. This can include regular exercise, stress-reducing activities like yoga or meditation, and ensuring you get an adequate amount of sleep. As for tests, your doctor may recommend some blood tests to rule out any underlying medical conditions that could be contributing to your high pulse rate. These tests may include thyroid function tests, electrolyte levels, and cardiac enzymes. It's important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

My dad's experiencing some angina pain, and we went to see a doctor at Sgpgi. They recommended an angiography, and it turns out there's an 80% blockage in each of his arteries. What does this mean for his health, and what should we consider doing next?
The recommended medication for managing angina pain due to blockage in the arteries is Nitroglycerin. It helps to relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow to the heart. Additionally, your father may also be prescribed antiplatelet medications like Aspirin to prevent blood clots, and statins like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages.

I've been feeling palpitations at night, and I'm a bit worried about it. My triglycerides level was 209, but my 2D Echo and ECG came back normal. My thyroid levels are also within limits. I don't feel any pain, just these palpitations. What could be causing them, and should I be concerned?
It's good that you have already done some tests to rule out any serious issues. Palpitations can sometimes be caused by anxiety or stress. However, since you are still experiencing them, it's important to consider other factors. One common cause of palpitations is caffeine intake. Try to reduce your caffeine consumption, especially in the afternoon and evening. Additionally, make sure you are staying hydrated and getting enough sleep. If the palpitations persist, you can try taking a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. If the symptoms continue, it's best to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.
