AboutDr. Tara Kompare, Pharm.D. Expertise I can answer a broad range of questions related to community pharmacy practice. My particular
interests include childrens` health and safe medication use for seniors. As the mother of two small children, I am quite knowledgable on many parenting issues from how to handle
a baby with colic to how to get kids to take their medicine. With regards to medication use in seniors, I can answer questions about adverse effects, drugs to generally avoid
in that population, and disease management issues.
Experience I entered the world of pharmacy as a technician for approximately six years. I then went on to receive my Doctor of Pharmacy degree and now work for the Federal Government as an outpatient pharmacist.
Publications Drug Topics Feb.2006 edition ("Why a Kiddie Corner Makes Sense"),
I also recently submitted an article to Pharmacy Times entitled "How to Help Parents Cope With Colic" which is scheduled for publication in the near future.

Question sir pl inform only medicine treatment for a v block for my mother age 71
Answer Hi Diwaliben,
The primary treatment for most patients with chronic AV block is the insertion of a pacemaker.
Drug regimens are not typically involved in the treatment of chronic AV block. Acute AV block is usually treated in the emergency room with atropine or epinephrine.
I hope this helps and I wish your mother the best.
