Medications to avoid with my heart condition--need list?

Pseudofed: It would depend on the specifics of your heart condition. The most common over-the-counter medicines that affect people with heart issues are those that contain pseudo-ephedrine, commonly called pseudofed. These are usually cold and flu preparations. Ask the pharmacist to direct you to brands without pseudofed, or look for ones labelled "hbp", as this typically means its safe for heart pts.
