Hi,

dytor n lasix belongs to the same group of drug.

Telmisartan in cilacar T n cardace also belongs to the same group

regarding the prescription of ecosprin av 75 n nitrocontin 2.6 ....I can presume that there is possibly the CCF in the background of Ischemic Heart Disease....but selection of both or either of these two drugs shall be based on clinical features and ECG findings. But if Ischemic pattern is present ecosprin is very helpful. You can get in touch with any one of the doctor and talk to him that you have taken a second opinion from another doctor n show him the other prescription. There is no problem in taking a second opinion.
Hope this helped. Do let us know.
