I am taking tenoretic for 8 years and want to know if I can live a altitude of 4,500 ft above sea level. I visited that altitude recently and was told to rest for about a week until body becomes accustomed to the altitude. Will I have heart problems at that altitude? I take no other medications...just some herbal
Hello! Thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! Regarding your concern, I would explain that a certain period of time is needed for your body to get used to the new altitude and atmospheric pressure. You may feel some chest discomfort or shortness of breath during the first days. For this reason, I would recommend reducing the dose of theoretic to half the dose, in order to avoid breathing troubles. Hope to have been helpful! Kind regards,
