How safe is taking rancad 500,korandil 5 and modlip asg 75 for mild chest pain?
Patient: My mother is 68 years old, she is a diabetic patient with high blood pressure. She suffers from heart failure and short of breathing, earlier medicine was given to her are glycinorm 40 - twice a day, tazloc h 80 - once a day, cardivas 3.125 - twice a day, nitrocontin 2.6 - twice a day, modlip 5 - once at bed time. After taking the mentioned medicines, she was doing fine and all the reports like blood pressure, blood sugar, serum creatinine, lipid profile etc. are found within its normal range. Since last 3 weeks she is suffering from mid chest pain, which lasts for 15/20 minutes. We consulted another physician and he altered modlip 5 with modlip asg 75. at the same time he added two other medicines, i.e. rancad 500 - twice a day and korandil 5 - twice a day. My mother is afraid of so many medicines. my question is why rancad 500 and korandil 5 was given and modlip 5 was altered with modlip asg 75? while keeping other previous mediciines also? Doctor: thank you for your question on hcm    your mother might be suffering from angina cardiac pain.that's why he added aspirin in modilip.but this is not the solution. we want to know exact character of pain.if this is angina then you should consult cardiologist for early coronary angiography
