Health Query

My mom gets dizzy and loses balance and also forgets what happened when she was dizzy. This happens when she takes a lot of stress. The doctor has given donep, lanxtra, divalprid and petril. Why does she still get dizzy and loses thoughts? What could be the possible disease?

Hi lybrate-user,
your mom may be suffering from dizziness due to many causes. Since you list hypertension, depression, memory loss/amnesia as her medical conditions and that she is currently on medications like donep, lanxtra, divalprid and petril, I suggest that you re-consult the prescribing physician regarding your mother's recurrent dizziness and loss of balance as well as consciousness. If this is more easy to do online, I suggest that you contact the undersigned for a second opinion.

Dear doctor we have a patient of o.c.d. It's now known fact that it's due to hyper activity of mglur5. Proven medication is not available and are under development. You are requested to kindly help us by informing the safest method to block it like zinc nootropics (eg. Memantine, inositol) or as you know better like ayurvedic, homeopathic remedies). We will be highly obliged and thankful to you. You are requested to write with dosage etc.

Dear lybrate-user,
Any new drug undergoes many stages in research. For every 10000 drugs discovered, harly one drug comes out after the 3 stages of drug development. Mglur5 is still in animal studies stage. It may take another 10 or more long years to come for human trials (not to market) - that too if it works. It may die like all 9999 drugs before that. Both memantine and inositol are available in India. Though not approved for OCD, still you can try, if you can tolerate.

Hello,
these medicines make a person inactive and drowsy but does not cure dementia.
I would suggest you to start with homoeopathic treatment as many patients suffering from psychological and psyciatric diseases are benefitted from the same.

Dear Tapas,
When did you meet your doctor last? After taking these medicines did you consult her/him? These tablets take 2-3 weeks to start their action. If you follow up with the doctor, she/he will adjust the dose or add therapy.

Hello Doctor, My father aged 80 years old, had a mild stroke a year ago, fell today morning in floor. That hurt in forehead and around eye. Some blood went away from the forehead injury. The area is swollen a bit. And around the eye, a black mark is created as the blood clots around the eye. As my father taking aciloc-rd, donep-5, ecosprin-av (75/20) and syndopa-110 since last couple of months. But after the injury, our local doctor prescribed amoxyclav-625, chymotas-40 along with tet-vac. But I have some confusion, are this medicine safe to take with existing neuro medicine. I have asked to our local doctor and he responded it is safe. But I need second opinion before giving the medicine to my father. Please do not mind, it might possible, doctor was absent minded at the time of response. I always double check those decision. Please reply.

As you mentioned your father is taking ecosprin, it is highly recommended to get his imaging by ct scan or mri.
The medicines are safe but you need to check whether they are required or not.
Antibiotics are only required if there is obvious cut or open wound is present. I recommend for clinical examination of the patient.

Your father seems to be in quite advanced stage of the disease. In this stage neuro-rehabilitation is very much warranted. If he has any mood issues, those need to be addressed. Kindly consult a good neuro-rehabilitation physician. At i-nk we have a good neuro-rehabilitation department.

Since his accident he is been continuously on medicines are there any other better medicines which can help him in improving his memory.

Medications can only stimulate the neurotransmitters, they work for some and do not for others. Especially for those recovering from post traumatic sequelae, it is not easy. Keep trying various options. Good luck.
