Chest pain on the left side can have many causes even if your heart reports are normal, and understanding your medication can help clarify your treatment.

1. Possible Causes of Left-Sided Chest Pain Despite Normal Heart Reports

   • Chest pain may come from non-heart-related issues such as muscle strain, acid reflux (GERD), anxiety, or lung problems like inflammation or infection.
   • Sometimes, pain can be due to nerve irritation or gastrointestinal causes rather than cardiac issues.
   • If the pain continues, worsens, or is accompanied by symptoms like shortness of breath, dizziness, or sweating, further evaluation by a cardiologist or a general physician is important.

2. Overview of Newtel 40 (Telmisartan 40 mg)

   • Newtel 40 contains Telmisartan, a medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).
   • It works by blocking a hormone called angiotensin II, which narrows blood vessels; this helps relax and widen vessels, lowering blood pressure.
   • It is also used to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke in adults with hypertension.

3. When and Why Newtel 40 Might Be Prescribed

   • Telmisartan is prescribed for managing essential hypertension and protecting organs like kidneys in certain conditions.
   • It is important to take it exactly as prescribed and attend regular check-ups to monitor blood pressure and potassium levels.

4. Recommendations

   • Please consult your cardiologist or primary care doctor about your chest pain to rule out any other causes and ensure appropriate management.
   • Discuss your use of Newtel 40 with your doctor, especially if you experience side effects or have concerns.
   • Seek urgent medical care if chest pain becomes severe, or if you develop symptoms such as difficulty breathing, sweating, or fainting.
