Question 1

I'm planning on moving to Kanchipuram from the U.S. this June and I've been taking Vyvanse for my adult ADHD. I'm a bit anxious about how to continue this medication once I'm in India. Could you guide me on finding a doctor there, what the costs might be for appointments and medication, and what other treatment options are available?

Accepted Answer

I'm glad you're taking proactive steps to manage your nausea.

_Doxinate Tablet_

Doxinate is a combination of Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) and Doxylamine, an antihistamine. It's commonly used to alleviate nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.

_Taking Half a Tablet Daily_

While it's understandable that you want to manage your nausea, taking half a tablet daily without consulting your doctor may not be the best approach.

_Potential Concerns:_

1. _Doxylamine dosage_: Taking half a tablet daily may lead to inconsistent Doxylamine levels in your body, potentially reducing its effectiveness or increasing the risk of side effects.
2. _Interactions with other medications_: Doxinate may interact with other medications you're taking, including prenatal vitamins. Taking half a tablet daily may increase the risk of adverse interactions.

_Recommendation:_

1. _Consult your doctor_: Discuss your nausea management plan with your doctor. They can help you determine the best course of action and adjust your medication regimen if needed.
2. _Follow the recommended dosage_: Adhere to the recommended dosage on the label or as advised by your doctor.
3. _Explore alternative nausea management options_: Your doctor may recommend other treatments, such as acupressure bands, ginger, or other natural remedies, to help alleviate your nausea.

Remember, it's always best to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

Question 2

I'm feeling a bit anxious because I've been experiencing a heaviness in my head and pressure in my chest. I've already had some health check-ups, including blood tests like CBC, thyroid, lipid profile, and sugar levels, and they all came back normal. I've also undergone an ECG, stress test, 2D echo, and a CT scan of my brain, and those were normal too. I'm just not sure what to do next or if there's anything I should be worried about. Can you help figure out what might be going on?
