Avoid vitamin K–rich foods, take warfarin on schedule, and follow a consistent, heart-healthy diet.

Is a pulse rate of 55-65 normal? We've started my dad on Concor AM 5mg for the last couple of days, and now we're noticing his pulse rate is around that range, plus he's been experiencing some irregular heartbeats and mild chest pain. He's already dealing with hypertension and after a bout with COVID had palpitations and a pulse hitting 120, so he took Ivabid for a month, then switched to Dilzem CD 90mg for another month. We did notice his aortic valve is dilated at 4.3 cm. I'm really worried and wondering if we should continue with Concor, or could it further lower his pulse rate?

A pulse rate of 55-65 can be considered normal for some individuals, especially those who are physically fit. However, considering your father's history of hypertension, irregular heartbeat, chest pain, and previous cardiac medications, it is essential to monitor his condition closely. Concor AM 5mg is a combination of Bisoprolol and Amlodipine, which helps in controlling blood pressure and heart rate. Given his symptoms and medical history, it is crucial to consult with his healthcare provider to adjust the dosage or consider alternative medications. Continuing Concor may further decrease the pulse rate, so medical advice is necessary to ensure his safety and well-being.
