Hi friend
Welcome to Health Care Magic

The medicines for the heart are appropriate and state of the art
No need to change anything

Consult a Pulmonologist (Lung specialist)
You need examination / and investigations like X-ray and PFT (lung function Test) – for any subclinical problems like asthma…

Good luck
God bless you
