Dark red or maroon blood indicates bleeding that's higher in the colon or small intestine. Dark stools indicate that bleeding from stomach most probably an ulcer. Sometimes, you may observe loose stools mixed with streaks of blood which is seen in infections like dysentry.

Yes, you can take Dolo 650 (paracetamol) and Cetirizine together. No known significant interactions between the two. However, always follow dosage instructions and consult a doctor if: - You have pre-existing medical conditions - Taking other medications - Exceeding recommended doses

I'm worried because my AST and ALT enzyme levels are high. Is it safe for me to take Liv 52 with these elevated enzymes? I'm also concerned because my alkaline phosphate and globulin levels are up too. Would taking Liv 52 worsen my condition, or could it help bring the levels down?
NO THEY ARE NOT DUE TO LIV 52. NO ANY HARM IF ALK. PHOSPHATE OR GLOBULINE IS HIGH. THESE VALUES CHANGE TIME TO TIME. SOME TIME FROM LABORATORY TO LABORATORY AS TECHNIC IS DIFFERENT. DON'T WORRY, CONTINUE LIV 52.
