Hi I've ran out of Fludrocortisone tablets. Is it OK to miss two doses

Answered on 23rd May '24

Abruptly stopping or missing doses of Fludrocortisone can cause a sudden drop in bp, dizziness or weakness. Your doctor may advise you to resume taking the medication at your next scheduled dose or to take an extra dose to make up for the missed ones.

I can't get up in the morning mel

نارینه | 26

This condition, namely Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome, might be the cause. The symptoms that may develop include the inability to wake up at a preferred time as well as the feeling of being more alert during nighttime. This can be the result of the things you always do before going to sleep and the lifestyle you have. Nevertheless, you should try to go to bed and get up at the same time every day, not use electronic devices before sleeping, and set a relaxing pre-bedtime schedule.

I had bppv since last week from 18'th Feb 2024 diagnosed by a doctor and was prescribed vertin 10 mg took it for 5 days still had slight dizziness so he increased my doze to vertin 16 I have been taking it from past 2 days and now have no signs or symptoms of bppv should I continue taking vertin 16 ?

Female | 17

It is advised to consult your doctor before continuing any medication. Vertin 16 mg is a higher dose compared to Vertin 10 mg and should be taken only after consultation with a specialist. An ENT specialist has to be consulted for the same, which he will give a proper examination for and prescribe the medicine accordingly.

Hello, I have had a sore throat for 9 days my nose and mouth have been sore also, I have been on antibiotics for 5 days . It hurts me to swollow anything.

Female | 61

Maybe the antibiotics you have been taking for the last 5 days are not effective in controlling the infection resulting in your sore throat. I advice you to get an ENT consultation in order to get the correct diagnosis. They may recommend another antibiotic or to explore other treatment options and manage symptoms for you. Do not delay getting treatment of your problems with swallowing as this may aggravate matters.

For loose motions ensure hydration by giving sips of ORS frequently. Provide easily digestible foods like rice or bananas etc. Its best if you show him to your doctor.

Male | 26

It is possible that you may have an underlying respiratory condition such as asthma or COPD that is causing your symptoms. You should see a doctor for a more thorough evaluation and to discuss treatment options. It is also possible that your symptoms could be caused by allergies or other environmental triggers. An allergist or pulmonologist can help you identify the underlying cause of your symptoms and develop an effective treatment plan.

This could be a sign of underlying conditions such as peripheral artery disease, deep vein thrombosis, venous insufficiency, cellulitis, or other circulatory or vascular issues.

It's better if you refrain from smoking immediately after recovering.. Let your body heal as smoking can weaken your immune system more.

My mother, aged 61 is using tuberculosis medicine from last 9 days, yesterday a lab report determined sodium na level as 126, is it very alarming, few suggesting to admit in hospital, please help

Female | 61

Sodium level of 126 is known to be low and it may be a result of some antitubercular drugs. It is necessary to discuss the matter with the treating doctor, who can prescribe a different medication dosage or hospitalize your mother for a thorough examination.

Does height supplements will work for me, I am a 14 year old boy.Iam currently 5.2 feet and my father's height is 5.2 feet and mother's height is 4.8 feet. I have hit puberty early like 11 or 12. Can I grow to 5.7 feet with daily exercises and necessary food

Male | 14

So, I would refer you to a pediatric endocrinologist for a thorough evaluation of your chances of reaching the normal height. But exercise and a good diet are vital for growth, the use of height supplements is not recommended showing that they are not effective. The specialist can suggest a combination of other interventions that best suits you in terms of your needs and potential growth.

doctor said lump in breast is normal but I still have blushing symptoms do you recommend me any medicine for that

Female | 18

A specialist examination is necessary for any lump in the breast to be evaluated. Whilst most breast lumps are typically benign, it is imperative to rule out any cancerous tissues to make sure there are no health issues involved.
