I'm taking Liv 52 because I'm dealing with a loss of appetite, and I'm just a bit unsure about when exactly I should be taking it. Is it better to take it before meals or after?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
You can take Liv 52 before meals for better absorption and effectiveness. The recommended dosage is 1-2 tablets twice a day before meals.

View allI've just had some medical tests done and I'm a bit concerned because my SGOT came back at 92 and SGPT is 202. What do these numbers mean for my health? Are there ways to bring them back to a normal range? Should I be taking any specific medication? I don't have any other symptoms or issues, but would love some guidance.
SGOT (AST) and SGPT (ALT) are enzymes found in the liver. Elevated levels of these enzymes may indicate liver damage or inflammation. To reduce the levels within range, it is important to address the underlying cause. This may involve making lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, avoiding alcohol, and exercising regularly. In terms of medication, you can consider taking Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

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.

I'm feeling bloated throughout the day, and there's been this rumbling sound in my stomach. My stool has a really foul smell, and sometimes I even get diarrhea. This has been going on for a few weeks now. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I can do to help it?
