Dad and I were driving home where a car abruptly stopped before us, family frantically rushing out of the car. We stopped to inquire and found the man was having a heart attack. Thankfully, had angised on us, sublingually administrated and sent to CMH five mins away.
I’m very shook but more than anything, I’m sharing this because carrying a life saving drug like angised, which hardly costs Rs 1, can potentially save you or anyone from cardiac arrest and minimize damage until the patient reaches nearest cardiac facility.
Keep an emergency kit of following items and use in case of heart attack:
Angised tab - place under the tongue
Disprin tab - take orally and chew
Deponit NT5 patch - place on left chest
Update from hospital: he is stable. Alhamdulillah
Another incident I want to share. During Hajj, my parents encountered a man lying down. He had a cardiac arrest and was unconscious. My mother administered angised and performed CPR. He was resuscitated and taken by ambulance. Everyone MUST know basic life support/first aid.
