I have been taking medicines for BP. The medicines is changed from one to another like Ramipril 5mg, Losarton Sodium 50mg, Telmisartan 40 mg, etc. I want to know is there any problem in changing the medicines or one should I stick with only one medicines. Please advise. ## Yes, you should find one that works for you, without causing a lot of side effects that make you miserable and stick with it. When you keep switching, your body doesn't have a chance to get used to any medication and for it to reach its full level of effectiveness. Additionally, stopping one abruptly to switch to another may cause a rebound effect, which means your blood pressure and heart rate can bounce back up, so you kind of negate any effect the medication may have had. What medication has your doctor recomme...

Hi- My SGPT is 63.3 i.u/lit. I am under treatment but want to know how much time it will take to come in normal and when i can follow my normal diet ## Although I don't have a way to provide an exact answer to your question, I will say this: When one lives healthfully, health is the result. However, previous 
lifestyle habits and choices have taken a toll on our bodies and 
eventually lower the level of our health potential; whereas some conditions can take years to heal, while other conditions may only take 3 days. We are all different, and will heal and detoxify differently. I would give it a couple weeks, (maybe 2 or 3) before you can expect big changes, but please take care to only use that as an estimate and not a definitive time frame. If yo...

My father has acidity problems. There is pain in the upper part of the stomach, mostly after dinner/evening. The doctor (Gastroentrologist) said that it is GERD and prescribed the following medicine, Capsule P-ZOLE-L, Tablet BIZLO-OD, Syrup LACTIHEP, Syrup CRISLIN and tablet ETICLID. He also advised for UGIE (endoscopy). He developed the gas and acidity condition after the treatment for diabetes and also has inguinal hernia. I am bit confused as the medicines keep changing when we see another doctor and the problem still remains. Kindly advice whether the prescribed medicines are safe and are for the treatment of the problem mentioned. It is problem because of hernia? can hernia operation be done in this condition? Kindly reply and advice. Thank you.
