Rolimus 5 MG Tablet Health Feed

Health Query

Hi Doctor, I am a feeding mother of a 8 months old baby. I had few skin tags, as some body said I applied crushed garlic to it. Immediately next day skin became dark and few days later that black skin came off and it became a little white kind of patchy skin. I consulted dermatologist today, he prescribed me TECUM (Tacrolimus ointment. But I forgot to mention him that I am a feeding mother. Now I checked the ointment details which it is mentioned like feeding mothers should not use this ointment as it excretes in milk. Kindly suggest me whether I can use this ointment or not else please suggest me a feeding safe ointment.

Do not use TECUM onitment insteat of it you can use
evenshade ayurvedic onitment (charak) twice a day for 15 days this will help you
skin tags are due to hormonal changes .need not worry.

Asked for Male, 28 years old from Chennai

I have an sized vitiligo patch for the last 8 years. It has neither grown big nor decreased in size so far. Have stopped taking any medication both internally or externally. In recent days , I found few repigments appearing by itself. I have heard Tacrolimus 0.1% works well for local segmental vitiligo. How long will I have to use to start seeing the results and for how many times a day do I have to apply? Is there anything else to take internally or applied externally to fasten the process ? please help. I am fed up Also I was asked to take Vitibex tablet by a doctor along with this ointment. Have taken it for a month , and now I see white patches spreading again where it disappeared. Should I stop taking Vitibex ? I am worried . please help.

Hello, vitiligo is a genetic disorder trigger by indigestion and stressful conditions.
There was always confusion in patients mind regarding choosing right treatment approach for vitiligo.
Allopathy can give quick results but is not very safe for long term uses if steroids are used.
Homeopathic is safe but very slow and in most of cases it can not stop the spread of disease i. E old patches shows some recovery but new white patches continue to come even when we are using homeopathy.<...more

You can change brand but this may lead to lower blood levels of tacrolimus and may cause rejection. So consult your transplant nephrologist and adjust dose as per tacrolimus levels. There after you can continue with that brand.

She suggested some creams like - 1. Kojic acid cream 2% 2. Adapalene gel 0.1% w/w 3. Tacrolimus cream 0.1% w/w she suggested that if it is a "lessen" then you must go for laser treatment. Please let me know about the treatment.

Dear Lybrate user
sorry to know about the condition of your father.
He is suffering from END STAGE RENAL DISEASE. Sometimes kidney transplant may not solve the problem.
He needs to have dialysis for increasing creatinine and pottasium levels.
Vomitings are due to uremia.
Blood percentage decreases in such cases. Transfusion of blood may be required during dialysis sessions.
Contact a dialysis centre who can do dialysis at an affordable price.
Hope for the best.

Asked for male, 26 years old from Ludhiana

Hi everyone, I am 26 years old & very anxious about my vitiligo condition. I am suffering from it from last 8 years. On the very first year, I took allopathy from the reputed doctors and apply various ointments like tacrolimus. Initially, the patches were about to reduce but after a few months, they got bigger and have attacked with new patches. I took uvba light as well for a few months but no effect at all. After 3 years, I switched to homeopathy and he told me to get some things tested. My reports were +ve and I got +ve result from allergies (dust, food). Till now I have switched 3-4 homeopathy doctors including Dr. batra's because of no result. Apart from batra's the other homeopathy doctors prescribed me to take ammi visnaga, hydrocotyle, photos foetidus, allergen, arsenicum sulphuratum flavum 6x. Now I am taking medicine from reputed homeopathy clinic from delhi though I get some relief from allergy but not from vitiligo, I got some new patches as well. I researched and read some notes (studies) that some group took folic acids, vitamin b12, ginkgo biloba and they get cured but none of these groups listed their -ve effects. I am afraid to take these supplements. * I have some white hair. Patches location - neck (the initial patch), around both eyes, elbow, fingertips, hand. Please give me genuine advice that can cure my condition. Thanks!

First of all there should not be such errors with these highly refined medicines. But still if taken double dose in morning. You can take half dose in evening. But do not skip the evening dose.
