I'm really worried about my dad. He's got an artery blockage and has already had an angiography done. I'm stuck trying to figure out whether we should go for angioplasty or bypass surgery. He mentioned something about stents being used in angioplasty. Could you guide me on what's the best option here? Ive attached the report with all the details.

Question

I'm trying to figure out the best times of day to take my medications and I'm a bit confused. Here's what I'm currently doing: I take Eltroxin 75 mg on an empty stomach, Vertiford 8 mg and Nexito 20 mg after breakfast, and then after dinner, I have Dilzem 90 SR, Dicorate 250 mg (12 tablet), and Rosufit CV 10. Could you help me understand if these are the right times for each pill? I'm really not sure if I'm doing it the best way.
