No, it doesnt cause cancer but elevated levels can put you at a risk of cancer
Dr. Yusuf Suggests...
Take a Anti Ds DNA test Test or Take a APOLIPOPROTEIN EVALUATION PANEL WITH LIPOPROTEIN A Test

Hi, Is it safe to take vitamin tablets daily? If so, which ones should I take? I have been diagnosed with Vitamin D deficiency, and I am considering taking all vitamin supplements regularly.

Hello sir, I am 18 years old and currently in class 12. For the past 7 to 8 months, I have been facing problems with my studies. I am not able to remember what I studied an hour ago, and the same happens with other events like remembering someone name or the path I have travelled. This makes me anxious. My family is very supportive but has an old thought pattern, so it was difficult to convince them to take me to a psychiatrist. Finally, I went to Patna AIIMS and had a consultation with a psychiatrist. The problem is that after taking the medicines, I experienced vomiting, restlessness, sweating, and loss of appetite. Without consulting the doctor, my parents forced me to stop the medicines. The medicines were 1) Sertraline Daxid 50 and 2) Etizolam 0.25 mg. Now I do not have trouble sleeping or eating, but I still have the problem of forgetting things. I am attaching my report. It is impossible to convince my parents again. Please suggest the best course. Shall I take the medicine.
