Yes please continue both clopidogrel and ascard 75 mg. These are blood thinners required lifelong after cabg surgery. If discontinued then the risk of graft blockage is high.

Yes. Nausea and vomiting can be side effects of cholinesterase inhibitors and donepezil (donetaz) is one of the cholinesterase inhibitors. It would be advisable to start at a lower dose which is available as Donepezil 5 mg tablet. There are other alternatives too. Please discuss with your doctor who prescribed it or you contact me for further advise.

My mother (58 years) is suffering with thyroid and hypertension problems from last seven years. Recently 15 days back she was fainted and became unconscious for 10 minutes. She has the following symptoms 1 Sudden Palpitations in heart upto 170 beats per minute 2 Feeling weak 3 Tremors in hands 4 headache 5 High blood pressure 170/100 6 Breathlessness Previously she was treated by Senior General physician in Manipal Hospital from last seven years. Since her problems are recurring in a short time I have consulted a endocrinologist and admitted her in his hospital to find the root cause since there was no endocrinologist in Manipal Vijayawada. She is under his diagnosis from last four days in the hospital and sir expressed the causes may be Artilary Infillatraion or pheochromocytoma. He forwarded the 24 hours urine collection for analysis. Now the problem is she is suffering with high BP and high heart beat once in the morning everyday for an hour which she could not able to tolerate and when she takes tablets the BP and heartbeat raises further and more she is suffering. after that she becomes normal for remaining time in the day. She took medical 25 (metoprolol) for two days and today she takes Tellzy AM 40 mg (Telmisartan & Amlodipine) but there is difference and she suffered a lot for one hour. The doctor sir is saying that he will start the treatment after the examination only till that time he asked to continue the old treatment which is 1 Early morning Thyroxine 50 mg 1 tablet. 2 After breakfast Tellzy AM 40 mg 3 After Lunch Remetor CV 10 (Atorvastatin 10 mg and Clopidogrel 75 mg) What can I do now since we are not able to see her while suffering a lot for an hour a day regularly? My mother could use stalopam 10 mg tablets?

Some alteration of medicine is needed. If 24 hours urine sample is completed, discuss with your Dr. a long acting beta blocker tablet to be taken 2-8 hours (late night or very early morning) before the time of fast heart beating symptoms. Best wishes.
