I'm really worried because I've been taking dulcoflex tablets every night, and now it feels like I'm reliant on them. It all started back when I was 18 and dealing with constipation issues. I was also over 100 kg, but then I managed to get down to 75 and have kept it there. I just don't want this to turn into a lifelong dependency. How do I break this habit, and what should I be doing instead for the constipation? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Addiction to any drugchemical can cause the body to develop a physiological dependancy on it. This means that normal bowel movements will become impaired and this can lead to dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and dystonia of intestinal musculature. Seek professional help if you are unable to stop the habit on your own.

View allI've got an sgpt level of 56, and it seems like all the other tests in my master check-up came back normal. Should I be worried about this? My doctor mentioned that I don't need any medication for the increased sgpt level, but I'd like to understand if there's anything else I should be considering.
An SGPT level of 56 is slightly elevated, but your doctor's reassurance suggests it's likely not a cause for concern; mildly elevated SGPT can be due to various factors like fatty liver, muscle damage, or alcohol consumption; since your other test results are normal, your doctor may recommend monitoring your SGPT levels periodically and making lifestyle adjustments, such as maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and limiting alcohol intake, to help bring your SGPT levels back to normal.
