Brief Answer: Looks OK, how is his heart? Detailed Answer: Hello Again XXXXX! Thanks for following-up! I have noted the medications here. The only ones I wanted to ask you about were the Digoxin and the Cordarone. How long has your father been on these and have his Dig levels been check up on? You may want to take him to a cardologist to get the dosages adjusted if he has been on these 2 for awhile with no change. That's it! Otherwise I completely agree with the list of meds.. Eventually you will be able to stop the Nootropil and Stugeron.. Those are to protect the brain after the stroke, but we normally stop them after a few months as they don't do much after that much time. Hope this helps! Feel free to Follow-up any time! Thanks for coming to HealthCareMagic
