Can thyroid (hypo) patients consume Shilajit tablet at night just to maintain energy level and to cure weakness or dullness?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Shilajit is generally safe for hypothyroid patients when taken in moderation, preferably at night and not near thyroid medication timing. Keep a 4 to 6 hour gap. It may help with energy, but if dullness or fatigue persists, its important to rule out Vitamin B12 or iron deficiency, both common in thyroid issues. Always inform your doctor if youre adding any supplement to your routine.

Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test or Take a Ferritin Test Test

View allMy report shows Vitamin B12 level at 169 and Vitamin D3 level at 14. I have been experiencing symptoms like inflammation around the anus and general body discomfort. I started treatment with five doses of Eldervit 12 injection and two doses of Arachitol 6L. Although the symptoms improved, some of them have returned. I am also taking Caldikind Plus one tablet daily, Neurobion two tablets daily, and Uprise D3 once a week. I would like to know how many more doses I should take and when I can expect complete relief from all symptoms.

Dear Dr, B12 deficiency has been reported in the blood report. Please guide me about substitute of Inj Mobyrin 1500 mg IM as the same is not available in the vicinity.

Why shouldn't you give folate in patients with a B12 deficiency?
