View allI'm really concerned about my father. He's diabetic and took Glycomet GP 2 Forte for about 25 days. Then, out of nowhere, his sugar levels dropped drastically. We saw a doctor who told us to give him sweets, and that seemed to help, bringing his levels back to normal. The doctor checked his kidney, liver, heart, and blood pressure, and everything seemed fine. But then at night, he's been feeling strange. He gets this heat in his chest, pain, a metallic taste in his mouth, tension, and sometimes he wakes up suddenly. We've consulted both a general medicine doctor and a diabetes specialist, but we're not sure why he's experiencing these symptoms. Any idea what's going on?

I'm 20 and recently found out I have a vitamin D deficiency. Is it okay if I take Nurokind D3 tablets every day?
What is your vitamin D3 levels? Based on the amount of deficiency you can take injection. Uprise D3 6L once a week. This will be cheaper and faster than oral medications. If you do not want to take injection, then yes you can take neurokind D3 once a day for a month. Or you can take D3 must 60k once a week for 3 months.
