I'm wondering if the Ethiglo Glutathione pills, recommended by my dermatologist for pigmentation and skin lightening, are actually effective. Or should I consider using Glutone 1000 instead?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Glutathione pill (Ethiglo) along with vitamin C is commonly used for pigmentation issues. Ethiglo is effective in improving skin tone and reducing pigmentation. Based on your dermatologist's recommendation, you can start with Ethiglo for better results. The usual dosage for Ethiglo is 500mg once daily.

View allI recently got my serum test results back, and they show my IgM at 0.62 and IgG at 30 on an index where 0.90 is considered non-reactive. I'm not sure what to make of these numbers. Additionally, I also had tests for HIV, VDRL, and hepatitis, and thankfully, those came back non-reactive. Could you help me understand what these results mean, especially about the herpes part? I'm feeling a bit worried and would appreciate any advice or explanation you can provide.
Based on your test results, it indicates that you have a past infection with herpes simplex virus (HSV) as your IgG levels are greater than 30. Since your IgM levels are 0.62, it suggests a recent or current infection. To manage herpes outbreaks and reduce the frequency of recurrences, you can take antiviral medications such as Valacyclovir

I'm dealing with a constant itching and burning sensation between my legs, especially around my testis and anus. It's been going on for a couple of months now. I've tried a few things like Quard cream, surfazsn, and even consulted a doctor who suggested Ritch cream and levoctrizen, but nothing has helped. I also visited AIIMS Jodhpur where they recommended candid b, Fluconazole tablets, and powder, yet I still haven't found any relief. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
I recommend trying a combination of Clotrimazole cream (such as Candid-B) for local application twice a day, Fluconazole tablet 150mg once a day for 7 days, and Fluconazole powder for dusting in the affected areas. This combination can help treat fungal infections effectively. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage and duration for optimal results
