I'm wondering if it's safe to take multivitamin tablets every day without checking with a doctor first. Also, is it necessary to do any blood tests before starting on multivitamins? Just a bit concerned about whether it's really okay to self-prescribe these or if there's something I should watch out for.

I've been taking Evion LC because it was prescribed to me, but I've been feeling a bit down since starting it. Do you think I should try switching to Evion 400?

It is unlikely that the symptoms of depression you are experiencing could be related to Evion LC. Evion LC contains a combination of Vitamin E and Levocarnitine. You can discuss with your doctor about switching to Evion 400, which contains only Vitamin E. The usual dosage of Evion 400 is 400 IU once daily. However, it is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I'm a bit worried because my pet dog just bit me and the wound is bleeding. The dog is up to date with all its vaccinations, but I'm still concerned. Do I really need to go for a rabies shot, or am I safe since the dog is vaccinated?

If your pet dog is fully vaccinated against rabies, the risk of rabies transmission is low. However, it is still recommended to clean the wound thoroughly with soap and water, apply an antiseptic, and monitor for any signs of infection. Additionally, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
