Brief Answer:
Acidity possibly

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Welcome to HCM.

It depends on why have you been prescribed Moxikind.

If you have respiratory infection, your mild breathlessness and chest tightness can be due to the disease itself. They will subside once infection is contained.

On the other hand, Moxi can also produce gastritis (acid burn in stomach) which can cause chest tightness. Antacids will hep you in that case.Try cold milk and milk of magnesia syrup and see the response. You can also try OTC drugs like esomeprazole 20mg once a day.

If you still feel chest discomfort, consult your doctor.

Feel free to post any further queries.
All the best.
