Question

My son has been having this skin allergy or infection for the last 15 days, and I'm really worried because it seems to be getting worse instead of better. The pediatrician suggested using Permite ointment and Opox dry syrup for a week, but it hasn't helped at all. Can you please help me understand what's going on and what we should do next?

Question

I've been experiencing a lot of hair loss over the past two months and started using Mintop 2 about 20 days ago. However, it feels like the hair loss has actually increased since I began using it. I remember last time I tried it for a month, and it seemed to help stop the hair loss. I'm 23 and female. What do you think could be happening? Could it just take more time to work, or should I be concerned?

Question

I've been taking Becadexamine multivitamins for the past three weeks and I've noticed my skin has become fairer. Is this typical? Is that how multivitamins usually work? Also, when's the best time to take them?

Question
