[|Human|] Hello. I am 33 and never took Apri21. I wanted to know if it s ok to take this medication when I just found out that I have gallstone. Also, since I had my son three years ago I been having problem with my period. ..heavy flow, cramps and pain, and It last for 7 days..After that I start feeling that I m ovulating and the discomfort continue until my period start again.
[|AI|]  Hi.what is the generic name of Apri21, and is it FDA approved? Personally, I am not against but I do not recommend taking in of supplements/medications if they are not FDA approved or hasn't passed the clinical trials recommended for approval. Majority of the medications/supplements we are taking in, whether with medical indications or none, will pass through our liver for metabolism, and kidneys for clearance. This may cause problems, maybe not now, but in the future. It is best if you consult with a doctor for physical examination and clinical evaluation first. Diagnostics and management (medical and surgical) will be directed accordingly. For gallstones, definitive treatment is cholecystectomy or surgical removal of the gallbladder. It could be done laparoscopically (gold standard) or through open technique. Low fat diet is also recommended. Hope this helps. Good day!!~ Chat Doctor.
