I'm 35 weeks pregnant and having twins, and I'm 30 years old. I've been dealing with really bad itching and redness on my belly for the past 10 days, and it's especially rough at night because I can't sleep at all. My LFT came back with high levelsAlkaline phosphatase is at 346 IUL, G.P.T. is 105.2 IUL, and another one is 101.4 IUL. I'm taking Udiliv 150 three times a day, but it's not helping. I'm worried about what's causing this and if there's any risk to my babies. What should I do?

Your symptoms and elevated liver enzymes suggest intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), a condition that can increase the risk of preterm birth, fetal distress, and stillbirth; consult your obstetrician to discuss the best course of action, which may include switching to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) or adding antihistamines or topical creams to alleviate itching, and closely monitoring fetal well-being and liver function to ensure the health and safety of both you and your twins.

My wife is 37 and in her 8th month of pregnancy with our second baby. She's been struggling with a heavy cold, runny nose, sneezing, cough, a mild fever, headache, and a burning throat with some pain. She's been taking Dolo 650 and Okacet 10mg, but they don't seem to be helping much. Could you recommend any other medications that might be safe for her during pregnancy? We're really concerned and would appreciate any advice you could offer.

Yes, continue same treatment.
