I've been prescribed Finabald 1mg once daily for my hairfall issue, but I'm a bit anxious about it because I've heard there could be side effects. I'm getting married in a few months and I really don't want to risk anything. Is there a safer alternative to Finabald that I could consider?

Can glutathione injections really help me achieve a fairer and more even skin tone all over my body? Id love to know more about how effective they are and if they're safe to use. Could you share some advice on this?

I'm really concerned because every time I drink alcohol, I start itching all over my body afterwards. Like, last week, I had some beer, and two days later, the itching began. Is this normal, or should I be worried about an allergic reaction or something? I'd really appreciate your advice on what might be causing this.

This itching may be due to alcohol-induced urticaria, which is a type of skin reaction that can occur after consuming alcohol. I recommend taking an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help relieve the itching. Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion like Calamine lotion to the affected areas. If the itching persists or worsens, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about something and I'm hoping you can help. I've been using No Scars cream for a while now, and I've heard rumors that using it continuously might cause cancer. Is there any truth to that? If it is possible, when would it become a risk and what causes this to happen?
