View allI'm currently taking BTN ULTRA for my hair, and I'm considering adding Dr. Reddy's OMEGA 3 capsules to my routine as well. Is it safe to take both the BTN ULTRA tablet and the OMEGA 3 capsule together in the morning? I'm just a bit worried about any interactions or if Im getting too much of something. What's your advice?
Yes you can take no problem.

I've been noticing some white streaks on the sides of my face, right on the cheekbones. They're not really spots or patches, but they definitely look fairer compared to the rest of my skin. Any idea what might be causing this?
The white streaks on your cheekbones could be due to several reasons, including hypopigmentation, vitiligo, pityriasis alba, or idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis; so consult dermatologist
