Suffering from cold- heart patient
Hello Sir/Madam, My mom underwent angioplasty three weeks back. Because of dust she is having cold from past three days, we have only taken Dolo 650 till now. As the Cardiologist is currently on vacation. Could you please advise if karvol plus steam can be done?
She is currently on following medications
Ecosprin 150 mg, Prax 10 mg, Atorvastin 40, Lasix 40, Metoprolol 50 & 25, Pan 40
Yes steam inhalation with Karvol can be safely done. She can also safely use an over the counter anti histamine medication like Levocetrizine or Allegra 120 mg for symptomatic relief without any interaction with her medication or condition. Avoid medicines like crocin cold relief or vicks action 500 which can cause a spike in blood pressure or pulse rate and must be used with great caution by elderly patients
