I've been taking Saridon for my headaches about once or twice a month and I'm wondering if that's safe to continue. Could you give me some advice on this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Saridon can be used occasionally for headaches, but it's important not to rely on it frequently. Using it once or twice a month is generally considered safe, but if headaches persist, it's a good idea to consult a doctor for a more tailored treatment plan.

I'm experiencing this strange internal vibration or buzzing sensation throughout my body, especially in my legs. It really becomes noticeable when I'm sitting or lying down almost like an electric current running through me. I've been on PPIs like ranitidine, rabeprazole, and omeprazole recently, though I only took the first two for a day each and omeprazole for four days. They also prescribed gabapentin, but I haven't tried it yet because I'm worried about the side effects. It's been weeks now, and while I initially thought this was all due to some acidity or acid reflux, what scares me more is my muscle mass seems to be disappearing. I can press or pull my muscles too easily, and sometimes I feel weak or numb and even have trouble breathing while reading or studying. What's going on with me?
you may have vitamin B12 deficiency.

I'm experiencing this pain in my hands and feet when I walk, and it's got me a bit worried. There's also this weird numbness in my fingers at night when I'm trying to sleep. Could this be peripheral neuropathy? What should I do about it?
Suffering from peripheral neuropathy with pain in hands and feet while walking and numbness in fingers at night during sleep. This condition can be managed with medications such as Gabapentin (Neurontin) starting at 300mg taken orally once a day at bedtime, then titrated up to 300mg three times a day. Additionally, Pregabalin (Lyrica) can be taken at a starting dose of 75mg twice a day or 50mg three times a day, which can be increased to 300mg to 450mg per day in two or three divided doses. Please consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
