hello one of the reasons for breathlessness can be a side effect of tablet brilinta ticagrelor it happens quite frequently in patients taking it about 13 percent of the patients to be precise but I would suggest you not to stop the drug until the breathlessness is quite severe because it is very important to keep the blood thin and the stent open so he should continue taking brilinta another reason for breathlessness can be decreased ejection fraction pumping of his heart water getting accumulated in the chest and hence the breathlessness and to make sure that this is not the cause I want you to answer my few questions is he having any swelling in the feet is he having difficulty breathing when he lies down does he have a cough if the answers to any of these questions are yes and to prevent the water from accumulating in the lungs you can add a diuretic which will make him do more urine and get the water out of the lungs but to confirm it as soon as the couid situation settles down you can get an appointment with your doctor for a echocardiography and get it done for numbness it can be usually a sign of a neuropathy either due to nutrient deficiency or any metabolic disease I would prescribe you a few drugs does he a have history of diabetes mellitus brilinta induces dyspnea la dysfunction egg ad echo la dysfunction brilinta induced dyspnea brilinta induced dyspnea tablet torsemide my 0 neurobion 1 continue taking concor asgard lipicure and brilinta maintain a healthy lifestyle follow up after seven days
