Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My father has undergone CABG last year. Presently he is useing these medicines. Ceruvin A,Homochek Cap,Stanlip 145 MG,Stovas 80,Supradyn. These he is taking from last 1 year. Recently other doc. suggested to take only two medicines. i.e Ecosprin gold 10 and Homochek. Please advice me on this.
Yes your doctor is justified in giving only two medication as 1 year has already passed from CABG and if his heart function is nornall and lipid profile is well under control . Even in Ecosprin gold and homochek, homochek is like a vitamin . So effectively he has to take only 1 medicine for his heart . However I request you to keep a check on lipid profile every 3 months and evaluation of the heart with 2 d echocardiography and Treadmill stress test if available every 1 year Regards Dr Priyank Mody
