Hello Mr XXXXXXX

Welcome to Ask a Doctor service.

Any chest pain in your age requires proper diagnosis and we have to be absolutely sure that it is not due to heart attack.

So, to make sure you not having a heart attack, I urge you to do and ECG and Troponin-I and Troponin-T with CKMB levels.

Based on that result further treatment can be obtained at the same hospital that will visit for these tests.

Hope that is of help

Brief Answer:
Unfortunately medicines can not be advised without ECG report.

Detailed Answer:
I am sorry, without confirming the cause of chest pain it is not possible to advise any medicines because medicines for heart attack can worsen pain due to other reasons and medicines for other pains can worsen heart issues.

I hope you will forgive me for refusing to advise any medicines without proper diagnosis.

Please get the ECG and suggested blood tests done immediately, I mean, right now, minutes matter in this issue.

I hope you will understand.

Best regards
