I'm dealing with a vitamin D deficiency and my doctor prescribed Lumia 60K for me. I'm really curious, what's the best time to take it? Should I have it on an empty stomach or after eating?

I accidentally took THYRONORM twice today, once at 8 am and then again at 2:30 pm after lunch. I was actually supposed to take my blood pressure medicine, Lover 100 mg. Can you tell me if it's okay for me to take my BP medicine now? And is there anything else I should do since I took an extra dose of THYRONORM? I'm really worried about what this might do.

yes you can take it

I've been dealing with gynecomastia and not sure if I should go for surgery or try other medications right now I'm using homeopathy but wondering if I should switch to something else what would you recommend

Once gynecomastia has been diagnosed, treatment of the underlying cause is warranted. If no underlying cause is discovered, then close observation is appropriate. If the gynecomastia is severe and of recent onset, medical therapy can be attempted, and if ineffective, glandular tissue can be removed surgically
