I've recently seen a dermatologist and they prescribed me Resoten 20, along with some moisturizers and lip balm. I've heard that this medication can make acne look worse before it starts to improve. Should I stick with the 20mg, or do you think a stronger dose might be necessary for my mild to severe acne? Also, is there a more affordable option for Isotretinoin capsules than Resoten 20?

View allI'm dealing with some serious hair fall issues and just saw a dermatologist recently. She prescribed me a tablet that has 10 mg of biotin, 100 mg of calcium pantothenate, and 50 mg of N-acetyl cysteine in each dose. I'm a bit concerned about whether this is a safe dosage to be taking. Could you give me some guidance on this?
Safety of Hair Loss Medication_ The prescribed tablet contains: 1. _Biotin (10 mg)_: A safe and effective dose for hair loss, promoting hair growth and strengthening hair follicles. 2. _Calcium Pantothenate (100 mg)_: A form of Vitamin B5, which is essential for hair growth. This dose is within the recommended daily intake. 3. _N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) (50 mg)_: An amino acid that supports hair growth and reduces oxidative stress. This dose is relatively low and considered safe. The combination and dosages of these ingredients are generally considered safe and effective for addressing hair loss. However, it's essential to: *Follow your dermatologist's instructions *Monitor your body's response to the medication *Report any adverse effects or concerns to your dermatologist

It is commonly used to improve skin conditions and purify the blood. However, like any medication, it may have side effects such as stomach irritation, diarrhea, or allergic reactions in some individuals. It is generally safe to consume yogurt while taking Safi. As for the best drink to purify blood, water is the most effective and natural way to help cleanse the blood.
