I've been taking Betacap TR 40 in the morning and before dinner, along with Newcita Plus and Oleanz 5, but I took Newcita Plus by mistake. Now I'm experiencing right side back pain and arm discomfort. Do you think it would be okay to increase Betacap TR 40 to Betacap 60?

Yes, you can increase the dosage of Betacap. Betacap TR 40 contains propranolol 40mg, while Betacap 60 contains propranolol 60mg. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication dosage. If your doctor agrees, you can switch to Betacap 60 and follow the recommended dosage instructions.

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having chest pain for a while and thought it might be due to gastric issues, but yesterday it got really bad and lasted more than half an hour. Now she's noticing that when she turns her head to the right, the pain in her chest gets worse. Since yesterday, she's also been feeling some uneasiness in her chest. What could be going on? Should we be worried about something serious?
