Question 1

what do you suggest if i've been wondering if i could take prenatal vitamins and hairfinity (hair growth) pills at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Too much: It is possible to overdose on certain vitamins by duplicating vitamin supplements.  A high quality prenatal vitamin should be all you need.

Question 2

can i take blackmores hair skin and nails at the same time as taking blackmores bio zinc vitamins?

Accepted Answer

Should be OK: I checked the manufacturers website for active ingredients. Bio zinc has zinc, magnesium, manganese, vit a, & vit b6.  Hair, skin, nails has silica, vit c, horsetail extract (?), folic acid, vit b5, iron, biotin, betacarotene, & also has zinc & manganese, but in amnts that would be safe combined with the other supplement.  Supplements are drugs and may interfere with other meds--be sure to check.

Question 3

could someone take biotin at the same time as the topical rogaine (minoxidil) cream to grow hair?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Rogaine (minoxidil) is an anti-andrigen agent while biotin is a vitamin.  Different methods of action and affect.  Biotin supplements what may be a deficiency in the diet allowing for a stronger hair follicle.  The rogaine (minoxidil) inhibits the negative effects of testosterone on the hair follicle.

Question 4

can i take iron vitamina c and biotin at the same time to prevent hair loss?

Accepted Answer

Yes but...: It is safe to take those at the same time, in fact Vitamin C improves iron absorption. But you did not tell us your age or gender. Iron is often needed by menstruating women but most men and post-menopausal women should NOT take it unless tested to be deficient, as excess iron increases risk of heart disease.
I also advise taking a quality multivitamin and having thyroid levels checked.

Question 5

is it okay to take 1 prenatal vitamin, 1 azo yeast pill, and the 3 required hair skin and nail vitamins in 1 day? and no, i'm not pregnant.

Accepted Answer

Skin and nail: You may be taking more Vitamins than you need. The Prenatal Vitamin likely has everything you need. Too many Vitamins can actually cause more harm than good. You would have to read the contents of the skin and nail Vitamins and see if they overlap with the prenatal (which they likely do). Then total all of it up to see if you exceed safe levels. One Vitamin a day is usually enough

Question 6

is it ok to take finasteride (for hair loss) and flomax (tamsulosin) (for help emptying bladder) at the same time before bed each evening?

Accepted Answer

Yes: You can take these drugs together. Why not?  I do not see any drug- drug interactions among them.

Question 7

if i am taking propecia (finasteride) for hair loss, is it good or bad to take pregnenolone at the same time? had brain fog while taking propecia (finasteride)...not anymore

Accepted Answer

Do not take it: Why would you even want to take pregnenolone? There are little studies in humans and because it is a precursor to steroids, it carries a fair amount of risk.

Question 8

i take 20mg prilosec once a day before bed time. that's what i was prescribed. now i'm suppost to switch it to morning does this pill causecloudy head?

Accepted Answer

Not usually: Most people do not have any real issues w/prilosec that relate to mental function, and many take it twice daily.

Question 9

i've been sick for three days my partner told me he had gonorrhea and i took pills my head and fever won't go away i am cold and hot at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Shaking chills: You sound quite ill and it may or may not be from gonorrhea, but i would not take the chance. Gonorrhea is quite easily transmitted and you may be experiencing "systemic infection" (infection spreads via blood) and could potentially be fatal. Folks with 1 std often carry others such as hiv/herpes as well. Acute HIV can cause your symptoms too. So, please check in with your doc asap. Good luck.

Question 10

i get goosebumps on one side of my body and the other side is fine also feel the same in my head, i suffer from migraines & take 3 amitriptyline pills?

Accepted Answer

Weird: It sounds like you may be having some strange side effect from the amitriptyline. With nothing else to go on, that sounds at least feasible. Because it is a medication that affects nerves, see if you can taper or stop the med (with your Family Doc's permission). A drug holiday could give you one piece of information to go on. If it's not that, then keep looking for other weirdness.
