My brother has been taking Tegretol CR 200 and Frisium 10mg tablets for his fits since he was 5 years old, but now we can't find the Tegretol CR 200 in stores or online. What can we use as a substitute for it? We really can't afford for him to skip his medicine, so I'd really appreciate any advice.

I'm really worried about my mom. She took Duzela m 20 for her nerve pain, but now she's having side effects like acidity, nausea, and burping. What can we do to help her feel better and reduce these side effects?

The side effects of acidity, nausea, and burping after taking Duzela M 20 (a combination of duloxetine and methylcobalamin) can be common. To alleviate these symptoms, I recommend taking the medication with food, drinking plenty of water, and considering an over-the-counter antacid (after confirming with her doctor). If the symptoms persist, please consult her healthcare provider for further guidance.
