Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Storfib, Amtas AT, Clavix are all important medications for treating high cholesterol, hypertension and to reduce risk of thrombosis.
2. Nikoran is usually used during acute angina or heart problems. Not to be used for long. Do meet your doctor regarding it.
3. Pantocid is used for gastritis. If there are no abdominal pain or bloating pain, then it can be discontinued. Taking for a long time is safe, however, dosage reduction can be done, if there are no symptoms.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
