Question 2

These: Medications would not interfere with pgx test. Some of the side effects of these drugs can make you feel bloated, or irritate your stomach.

Question 3

found out i was pregnant, is tramadol, percocet and flexoral okay during pregnancy. first doc appt is next week.

Accepted Answer

Pregnant: tramadol and flexural are an absolute no.  Percocet can be taken but i would  even try to wean yourself off that while you are pregnant if possible

Question 4

is nauzene safe during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: It's basically just sugar and aspartame (nutrasweet).  As long as you don't have phenyketonuria, you can take it.  I am not a fan of aspartame anytime, and i think it's especially important to avoid as many artificial chemicals during pregnancy as possible, so i wouldn't recommend nauzene. There are other nausea treatments that i'd use first (try ginger tea).

Question 5

is brinjal during pregnancy safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes: By Brinjal, do you mean Eggplant? Only in the Indian cultures Brinjal is suggested to be avoided during pregnancy (Ayurveda) A normal eggplant has lots of vitamin A, dietary fiber iron. These are essential nutrients that are needed during pregnancy. It is believed that eggplants contain large amounts of phytohormones that may cause contractions so  use your judgement. Moderation is key.

Question 6

is seaweed okay during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Recommendation : In recent years due to pollution of see products, my advice to use it  just not often: may be twice a month. Nobody knows how much Mercury in it.

Question 7

care to be taken during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Obstetrics: I am not sure what you are asking. In the U.S. The moment one knows they are pregnant they go to see an obstetrician who runs all kinds of tests, gives literature to read and a schedule on how often and when they should be monitored.  I am not sure of the culture there in india.

Question 8

what shouldn't i do during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Illegal opiates: There are a lot of things to NOT do during pregnancy, but I want to focus on the overuse of opiates by pregnant women and the impact on their unborn children who go through drug "withdrawal". There are several studies about the rising use of these drugs by pregnant women recently and it is a bad testimony to our profession (healthcare) to convey this message to the general public.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Lozenge: If you are referring to the throat lozenge ricola, then the answer is most definitely yes.
