I'm a bit confused about my medication change. My doctor used to prescribe Concor AM 2.5mg, but now they've switched me to Concor COR 2.5mg. Can you explain the difference between the two? I'm curious if there's a big change or anything I should be concerned about.
Concor AM 2.5mg is a combination medication containing bisoprolol (a beta-blocker) and amlodipine (a calcium channel blocker), while Concor COR 2.5mg contains only bisoprolol. The main difference is that Concor AM helps control blood pressure through two different mechanisms because of its two active ingredients, while Concor COR works through just one mechanism (beta-blocking). However, since this involves your prescribed medication, you should check with your doctor or pharmacist about why they made this change, as they know your specific medical situation and can explain their reasoning for modifying your prescription.

I've been feeling really off lately. Sometimes I feel like I can't breathe properly, and I start sweating. I checked my blood pressure and pulse, and they seem normalBP was 12070, and pulse rate was 73. But for the past few nights especially, my heart feels like it's racing. I go to the gym regularly, I don't smoke, but my job at an MNC is pretty stressful. Could stress be causing this, or should I be worried about something else?
