used ferrimed iron and neurobion vitamin b complex tablets for more than 6 months now- stopped when i realised the sores on my gums may be a result of too much of these medication?

Question

I'm wondering is good to take iron supplements, ascorbic acid and vitamin b at the same time?

Answer 1

Too many: There're too many conditions that can cause these symptoms to be able to differentiate from just a list. You should be physically examined, have your health history and medication history evaluated, you may need x-rays, you may need lab tests. See BOTH your General Physician and your General Dentist to begin the diagnostic process.

Answer 2

No: Formula has added vitamin d. The recommended daily amount of vitamin d for infants is 400 iu daily. Infants drinking formula only should be meeting this requirement. If the baby is partially breastfed, a vitamin d supplement should be added to make sure they get 400 iu daily.

Answer 3

Yes: Generally not. Unlike most breast milk, most if not all formulas are fortified with vitamin d and will provide the infant with an adequate intake.

Answer 4

No: Most formula is fortified with vitamin d so you wouldn't need extra, but look at the label, and ask your pediatrician.

Answer 5

No: If your baby is fully formula fed, they should be getting enough vitamin d (400 iu/day) and should not need a supplement. If they are both formula and breast fed, you may need to supplement them with vitamin d if they are not getting 400 iu/day.

Answer 6

No: Infants that are exclusively formula-fed do not need vitamin supplementation.

Answer 7

No: If you block the rays that burn, you're blocking the rays that help you make vitamin d. Use a vitamin d supplement.

Answer 8

Vit D: His main source of vit d should be given orally as instructed by your physician. Baby should never get sunburned. A severe sunburn in childhood greatly increases their risk for developing skin cancer later in life.

Answer 9

Give them a try: Pain is a tricky problem because so much of it is controlled by the brain. The best thing to do with these vitamins would be to try them and see if you get better. They won't hurt you in the proper doses and may help.

Answer 10

Possibly: B complex vitamins are often recommended for a variety of ailments. Tn (i assume you are referring to trigeminal neuralgia, ) is a poorly understood disease and successful treatments vary from person to person. I have treated some tn patients with tens and occusal splints. You should see a pain specialist.

Answer 11

D3: It seems that the latest information has been that D3 is what is best for the body - also called cholecalciferol. So you want a calcium with d3. Also, magnesium is an important mineral for bone health as well. As far as which supplement is the best, it is very difficult to say. An excellent resource is nutrisearch's comparative guide to nutritional supplements.

Answer 12

Lots to choose from: As long as you are getting between 1000-1200mg of calcium daily in divided doses and 2000-5000 units of vitamin d daily you should be in good range. A blood sample before and 3 months after supplementation would be recommended. Also make sure you are doing 30 mins of weight bearing exercise at least 3 times a week for optimal bone health.

Answer 13

For a lot of reasons: Calcium plays a vital role in body function. It regulates muscle contraction, nerve conduction and bone health among others. Both calcium and vitamin d should be taken with a meal ( only exception will be calcium citrate which can be taken on empty stomach).

Answer 14

It depends: Most vitamin d3 supplements are best taken with food. Calcium carbonate should be taken with food, so you may take both at the same meal. Calcium citrate can be taken with or without food.

Answer 15

With citrus juice: Citrus fruits and juices have vitamin c which aid in the absorption of calcium.
