I am feeling uneasy and have been drinking liquor for a long period of time. I am taking 3 tablets of nusam 400. What are the side effects? ## I'm 41yrs old and suffering from fatty changes G2. I am going to take Nusam400 tab twice a day. Will any problems occur? ## This is actually just a nutritional supplement that contains S-Adenosyl Methionine, so there is no harm in taking it, if your doctor has advised you to do so. The only side effected listed by the FDA is occasional nausea. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## Doctor has advised me to take Nusam 400 thrice a day. After consumption of 1 or 2 peg liquor any day can I take the medicine ?

The efficacy of S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine (commonly called ademethionine) has not been scientifically proved in several disorders for which it is suggested i.e. depression, osteoarthritis and liver disorders. Therefore it is marketed in a very few countries. It is available in India (under the brand name of MEGASAM & ADEMAX). It is available in Italy (under the brand name of Donamet) and Germany (under the brand name of Gumbaral) ## MEGASAM ## ADEMAX ## What are the brands of s-adenosyl methionine 400 tablets available in india

sir i am 50 years old.my SGPT is 77. doctor suggrst me to take nusam 200. what's its side effect? im sufferd from fatty liver ## i am a 30 years old lady having a problem of avascular nacrosis on my right hip. after getting pain i visited to the doctor and he suggested me for nusam 200. is there any side effect? ## Nusam is just a supplement, it's S-Adenosyl Methionine. It really doesn't have any proven medical use, other than that it's known to help with the pain from osteoarthritis. Thus, it's uncertain whether or not it will help with either of the mentioned conditions. If your doctor told you to take it, there shouldn't be any harm in trying it, but there's not guarantee that it will work to help you. Is there anything else I can help with?
