I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having loose motions and took Norflox TZ about 4 hours ago, but it hasn't helped yet. She's planning to take another dose in 4 more hours. Is it okay for her to do that?

I had laparoscopic surgery a while back but still get morning nausea and a bloated stomach sometimes. I've been taking nexpro rd 40 on an empty stomach in the morning, acta pro 100 mg three times a day, folvite two tablets three times a day, and essogress l before dinner at 8 pm since March 2019. How much longer do I need to keep taking these meds?

it's highly recommended to speak with your doctor about the ongoing need for these medications, especially since you've been taking them for a long period. They can assess your individual situation, consider the benefits and risks of continuing the medications, and determine the best course of action for your specific needs.

I recently got my liver function test results and I'm a bit worried because my SGPT level came back at 49. Is that considered high? Should I be looking into any kind of treatment for this? Also, my SGOT level is 34. Could you help me understand if these numbers are something to be concerned about?

Your SGPT (49) is slightly elevated, as normal levels are typically below 40 UL. SGOT (34) is within the normal range. It's important to discuss this result with your doctor to understand the underlying cause, but mild elevations may not always require treatment. A healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise can help maintain liver health.
