Question : LAST 6 MONTHS I AM TAKING CARDIVAS 6.25 TWO TIMS DAILY WITH ONE TAB CARNITOR 500 AS I AM A PATIENT OF DCM WITH EJECTION OF LV 20%. NOW MY DOCTOR CHANGED BOTH THE MEDICINES AND SUGGESTED TO TAKE ONE CONCOR COR 2.5 DAILY. SHOULD I DO, PRESENTLY I AM OK IN ALL SIDES WITH LOW SALT AND FLUID <1.5 ML PER DAY ALONG WITH FOLLOWING TABLETS
COVERSYL 4,
EPTUS 25,
DYTOR 5 AND LANOXIN 0.25 1/2 ONE ALTERNATE DAY. WITH REGARDS
DOCTOR ALSO ADVISED ME TO CHECK BLOOD TEST ELECTROLITE, SUGAR AND LIPD PROFILE AFTER ON MONTH OF TAKING MEDICINES.

HI XXXXXXX

Greeting from Dr. Divakara.P
First of all thanks for choosing Healthcaremagic for posting your query.

There is no significant difference between Cardivas and Concor . There was no reason to change it , though there is no harm in changing also.

Did your doctor tell you why he wanted to change ? Do let me know .

Yes it would be better if you get the tests done .
