Clopitab-a, Embeta And Atorva

Updated

After my CABG on 09.09.2010, I am taking Clopitab - A 150 Mg daily one after lunch as directed by my Cardiologist/surgeon. Since last week I am going through Arrhythmia (irregular Heart bits - skipping 10 - 12 bits / min out of 80 -90 bits with Blood pressure 130/90 hg/mm)

Is it due to the side effect of the following tablets I am taking daily as per the prescription?
1. Clopitab - A 150 Mg (After lunch)
2. Embeta XR 25 Mg (After Breakfast)
3. Atorva 10 MG (After dinner)

Waiting for your responce /advice, as the Local Medical Officer is totally helpless regarding any suggestion/advice regarding the above subject matter.

Copitab-A contains the active ingredients Clopidogrel and Aspirin, it is used as a blood thinner and to inhibit clotting.

Side effects may include: nausea, stomach irritation, headache and increased risk of bleeding.

Since it thins the blood, so the heart can pump easier, it usually isn't known to cause arrhythmia.




Atorva contains the active ingredient Atorvastatin, it is used to help lower cholesterol.

Its side effects may include: nausea, headache, chest pain and joint/muscle aches.

I'm also not finding anything relating it to the problem.




Embeta contains Metoprolol, it is a beta blocker commonly used to treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions.

It can cause side effects, such as: nausea, stomach pain, dry cough and dizziness.

This one has been known to cause a very slow heart beat, which is called Bradycardia and it may be the one causing your problem, since it does have a definitive effect on the heart. The problem could even be caused if you aren't taking it at the same time each day, because that can cause rebound effects, which may result in elevated blood pressure and fluctuations in heart beat.

Have you tried talking to your cardiologist about the problem?

I am also facing increased heart beats since 1 year when I started Clopitab. I am not sure this is because of the tablet though. Local medical practioner is not able to help me out from this.
