I'm taking ecospirin 75 every night at 9:30 PM, but sometimes I accidentally miss a dose. I'm worried about what could happen if I skip a day or two. Could you let me know if there would be any side effects or anything I should be aware of?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Missing a dose of ecospirin 75 (aspirin) can increase the risk of blood clots forming in your arteries, which can lead to serious conditions such as heart attack or stroke. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

View allI've been having this neck pain near my carotid pulse for a few days now, and it's like this sharp pain that comes and goes. My carotid pulse feels like it's beating strongly and sometimes fast. The first time it started was when I almost got mad at my boss. I also noticed my neck felt tight, and my tie was a bit snug. The next day, I checked my blood pressure at a clinic, and it was normal. I'm worried about what's going on. Do you think this is something I should be concerned about?

I'm feeling a bit worried about this uneasy sensation in my chest that comes and goes. I know I tend to have hypertension, although my blood pressure is currently at 12878. I'm already on medication for high blood pressure and high triglyceride levels, but my latest ECG showed something about sinus arrhythmia, even though it mentioned no significant abnormalities. Can you help me understand what this means and if there's something I should be doing?
You are experiencing chest discomfort and have a history of hypertension and high triglyceride levels. Your current blood pressure is 12878 and your ECG shows sinus arrhythmia with no significant abnormality. Considering your medical history, it is important to continue with your current medications for high blood pressure and high triglyceride levels. In addition, to address the uneasy feeling in your chest, you can take a medication like Ranitidine (Zantac) 150mg twice daily before meals to help with any potential acid reflux or gastritis symptoms that may be causing your discomfort. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
