Question 1

is it ok to take valpinax every day?

Not: Without good reason and strict medical supervision as it is addictive. Are you using it for anxiety or irritable bowel syndrome?

Question 2

how much fats are optimum to take in a day?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

if i took roxiconde yesterday is it ok to take a oxyconde to day?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes though I would strongly advise to use non narcotics for pain when possible

Question 4

can one take 2 bananas a day?

Accepted Answer

That is usually fine: Bananas are a good source of potassium,  b vitamins, vitamin c and magnesium.  Bananas don’t contain any fat or cholesterol..  1 medium sized banana has 27 gm of carbohydrates & only 1.29 gm of protein. So, you need to be judicious if you are a diabetic. Enjoy.

Question 5

best time of day to take b12?

Accepted Answer

Anytime: If we are speaking of pills I do not know of any best time.  If we are speaking of B12 injections, again anytime is ok.  Oral B12 requires an acid environment in the stomach in order to bind to intrinsic factor (made by the stomach) and be easily absorbed- so empty stomach is best and not when you have recently taken antacids or medicines that inhibit stomach acid production.

Question 6

can i take lancap twice a day?

Accepted Answer

Lancap: The maximum recommended dose of lancap is 30 mgs per day.  Your physician, who knows why you're taking it, can advise you best.

Question 7

can you take zegerid twice a day?

Accepted Answer

You can but: it is usually once a day, no harm if was taking twice in one day once, but to do that every day might not be safe. and it means that some thing is not right, either patient is not following diet, and eat what ever they want and expect the medicine to take care of it, or a diagnosis was not complete or wrong. see your GI

Question 8

should i take metamucil once a day?

Accepted Answer

That is fine: Insure that you are hydrating adequately.

Question 9

how many eggs per day should i take?

Accepted Answer

No more than one.: Guidelines seem to change a lot in this regard.  But currently, I believe the recommendation for egg eating is no more than one per day.  If you separated out the whites and only ate those, you could have more as the yolk contains the bad stuff.

Question 10

how much water should i take per day?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Alot of times you body lets you know by thirst.However our body sometimes confuses thirst with hunger.We also get fluids through foods that we eat such as vegetables/fruits/soups,etc.The environment also dictates how much we consume also-if it is hot,how much we sweat etc.I try to aim for 8 glasses of 8 ounces a day but each person is different.
