I've been taking Tazloc 40 mg and Nebicard 2.5 mg every day, but I've started having a lot of congestion and trouble with my breathing. I decided to stop them, and now the side effects are gone. Between these two medications, which one could be causing these issues?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Out of Tazloc 40 mg and Nebicard 2.5 mg, the medication more likely to cause congestion and breathing issues is Nebicard 2.5 mg. Nebicard is a brand name for Nebivolol, which is a beta-blocker commonly associated with side effects such as bronchospasm and worsening of respiratory conditions in some individuals. It is good that you have stopped the medications and the side effects have resolved.

View allI've been having this strange sensation on the left side of my chest, kind of like a needle prick. I got an ECG done, and it was normal, which is a relief, but my doctor put me on Provonal Forte. I'm just wondering, could this be some kind of chest infection or maybe anxiety acting up?
The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to anxiety or nerve-related issues. Provanol forte tablet is likely prescribed to help with chest discomfort and anxiety symptoms. However, if you are still feeling needle pricking sensations in your chest, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Paracetamol for pain relief as needed.

I'm a 33-year-old guy, and I've just been told I have a myocardiac bridge 1520. Lately, I've had a bit of right chest pain, some tightness, and I'm feeling kind of weak. Can you help me understand what's going on with me? I'm really curious and a bit worried.
Myocardial bridge is a condition where a segment of one of the coronary arteries tunnels through the myocardium rather than resting on top of it. This can lead to symptoms such as chest pain, tightness, and weakness. In your case, with a myocardial bridge of 15-20%, it is important to manage your symptoms and monitor for any changes. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take medications such as Beta-blockers like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to reduce the workload on your heart and relieve chest pain. Additionally, Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets can be used for acute chest pain relief. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your condition.

I'm experiencing a fast heart rate between 130-150 beats per minute, even though I'm not feeling anxious or tense. I recently had a 2D echo, and it came back normal. Could you let me know what medicine I could take to manage this when my heart rate spikes, and what might be causing it?
When your heart rate increases significantly despite not feeling anxious or tense, it could be due to a condition called tachycardia. In such cases, you can use a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol. The usual dosage for Metoprolol in this case would be 25-50mg orally, which can help slow down your heart rate and reduce the workload on your heart. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.
