Health Query

My mother is having severe pain in her body. Her condition is deteriorating day by day. She can't even walk properly, gets tired easily. No fever is there. Once she lays down on bed she can't even gather strength to raise her up to sit on bed or stand on the floor. We have consulted a doctor before and he prescribed these following medicines:- roseline (ferrous ascorbate, cholecalciferol, folic acid, cyanocobalamin & pyridoxine) (1 tablet a day) ultracet (2 tablets a day) Cefixime Tablets I.P. Omnatax 200 mg (2 tablets a day) Alembic 1 tablet with empty stomach. Please prescribe us a medicine. A natural Cure would be even better. Like some particular fruits or vegetables etc. Thank-you.

You need to give more details like her age, her hemoglobin level, her blood pressure and blood sugar levels. Then only something definite can be commented. Presently she is being treated for some infection ( even though you say she is not having fever ), vitamins, anti pyertics etc. You must give more details to get a definite diagnosis. You may consult further with these details.

Asked for female, 20 years old from Solan

Two months ago I had unprotected sex (used pullout method). That was two days post my last menstrual period. And that month my period periods were delayed by a week (40 days cycle). My cycles are 31-33 days. I took two home pregnancy tests both were negative. This month I too got my period after 31 days cycle but the flow was very less than usual. But on the 11th and 15th day of this cycle I got a blob of clear jelly like discharge. Also, I am having very very less cervical mucus (milky white in consistency). I feel my breasts size increased and I am urinating more frequently. I also feel my uterus area kind of swollen but that disappears when I lay down. Please tell me is it pregnancy or just because I am being stressed out about it. I am 20 years old female. Also taking ferrous ascorbate and folic acid tablets.

Asked for female, 28 years old from Bhilai

Which form of vitamin c (for skin) is safe to use for long term. Celin/limcee/calcium ascorbates/sodium ascorbate?

Dt. Riyaz Khan93%(3345 ratings)

For long term its better to avoid Tablets and take Vit C from natural sources.
Take 2 lemons daily.
Take oranges, mausambi, papaya, guava, strawberries on a daily basis.
This will take care of your Vit C needs.
It has to be taken daily since its a water soluble vitamin.

Ferrous sulphate. 200 mg and folic acid 5 mg take at the same day? Please suggest to me.

Ms. lybrate-user, no need to worry. Taking these tablets together will do no harm. Preferably you should take folic acid in the morning and ferrous sulphate 30-45 minutes after lunch. You can take lemon juice with ferrous sulphate. No tea, coffee and milk atleast before or after 2 hours after ferrous sulphate.
