I'm a bit anxious about my pregnancy because I had a miscarriage back in February. Now my doctor has suggested taking Susten SR 400 mg in the early stages of this pregnancy. I'm already taking Folvec, Ecosprin 75, and some vitamins. Is it really safe to take this high dosage of Susten SR right now?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Susten SR 400 mg is a high dose of progesterone, typically recommended for women with a history of miscarriage or preterm labor, and while it's generally considered safe, it's essential to follow your doctor's guidance and monitoring, especially when combined with other medications like Folvac, Ecosprin 75, and vitamins, to minimize potential risks and ensure a healthy pregnancy

Hey, I'm 34 weeks and 2 days along, and my ultrasound shows a cephalic presentation with the placenta anterior. This is my fourth pregnancy. My first baby was a C-section at 33 weeks, second was a full-term SVD, and my third was a C-section at 36 weeks. It's been eight years since my last pregnancy. I'm currently on insulin with a dosage of 5050, 20 units in the morning and 10 at night. Do you think it's possible for me to have a spontaneous vaginal delivery this time around? I'm really curious about what would be safest for me and the baby.
Given the symptoms of cold, cough, and vomiting for 3 days, along with the medication already taken (antibiotic and cough syrup), here are some suggestions: 1. *Consult the pediatrician again*: Schedule a follow-up appointment with the pediatrician to reassess the child's condition and adjust the treatment plan if needed. 2. *Monitor vomiting*: If vomiting persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention. Ensure the child stays hydrated with small, frequent sips of an oral rehydration solution (e.g., Pedialyte). 3. *Cough syrup usage*: Continue administering the cough syrup as directed by the pediatrician. However, be aware of the potential side effects, such as drowsiness or stomach upset. 4. *Antibiotic course*: Complete the full antibiotic course as prescribed by the pediatrician, even if symptoms seem to improve before finishing the medication. 5. *Supportive care*: Provide comfort measures, such as: - Offering a warm, comforting drink, like tea or broth. - Using a humidifier to relieve congestion. - Encouraging rest and relaxation. 6. *Watch for warning signs*: Seek immediate medical attention if you notice any of the following: - Difficulty breathing - Severe vomiting or diarrhea - Fever above 104F (40C) - Severe headache or stiff neck - Refusal to drink fluids
