I'm a bit confused about when I should take my next dose of Buscopan Plus for my tummy ache. Is it okay to have it every 4 hours, or should I wait until 6 p.m.? I just want to make sure I'm taking it correctly.

The recommended dosage interval for Buscopan Plus varies depending on the specific product and formulation, but generally, it's recommended to take one tablet every 4-6 hours as needed, with a maximum of 3-4 tablets in 24 hours

My mom's been diagnosed with grade 1 fatty liver, and I'm really worried. Is this something serious we should be concerned about? What kind of treatment options should we be looking into? Would really appreciate some guidance.

Fatty liver grade 1 is the least severe form of fatty liver disease. It is important to make lifestyle changes to manage and potentially reverse the condition. Treatment usually involves: 1. Weight loss: Encourage your mom to lose weight through a healthy diet and regular exercise. 2. Medications: Doctors may prescribe medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to improve liver function. 3. Avoid alcohol: It is important to avoid alcohol consumption to prevent further damage to the liver. 4. Control diabetes and cholesterol levels: Keeping diabetes and cholesterol levels under control can help improve fatty liver. 5. Vitamin E supplements: Some studies suggest that Vitamin E supplements may be beneficial for fatty liver disease. Please consult a doctor for proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm really concerned about my health right now. I just got a USG report saying I have an enlarged liver, measuring 142mm, and the impression notes mild hepatomegaly. Everything else seems normal, but I've been struggling with slow digestion too. I'm currently avoiding alcoholic drinks and fast food, but I'm in a remote area where I can't find a specialist. Could taking LIV 52 tablets help with this, or is there anything else youd recommend?

Mild hepatomegaly (enlarged liver) can be due to various causes, including metabolic factors, infections, or liver conditions. While LIV 52 is commonly used for liver health, it's important to address the root cause of the enlargement, which might require further investigation or lifestyle changes like improving hydration, avoiding fatty foods, and managing stress. Given your remote location, its best to consult with a healthcare professional as soon as possible, even through telemedicine, to ensure the proper course of treatment.
