Question

I've been dealing with ulcerative colitis since 2013, and I'm really struggling to find something that works. I've been on medication for the past three years but haven't seen any improvement. I even tried homeopathy for a year, but that didn't help either. Do you think Ayurveda might be able to cure this disease? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Ayurveda may offer complementary treatments to help manage Ulcerative Colitis (UC) symptoms, such as dietary changes, herbal remedies like triphala, and stress-reducing practices like yoga, but it's essential to consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner

Question

I'm a bit worried because the doctor originally wrote "Histac" on my friend's prescription, but the pharmacist gave them "Aciloc" instead. My friend didn't realize the difference at the time and used it without double-checking. Should we be concerned about this swap? Are Histac and Aciloc similar enough that it's okay, or should we reach out to the doctor just to be safe?

Question

Can I split my rifagut 400 mg pill in half to get the dosage for rifagut 200 mg? I've been told to take rifagut 200 mg twice a day for my diarrhea, and I'm wondering if this is a safe way to adjust the dosage.
