Is Symbal More Effective At Treating Diabetes Than Maxmala Forte?

Posted on Mon, 17 Apr 2023

Question: I am under your treatment for chronic headache and tingling/current like sensation when I go to bed in my right leg calf muscle. Though headache is under control but tingling/current like sensation/discomfort in the right leg calf muscle has not been cured fully. As per your advise I am taking following medicines for calf muscle issue:
1. Maxmala forte - once at night
2. Gemcal DS - once daily.
Even after addition of Gemcal DS, not much relief is there. I have recently got all my blood tests done. The test reports are attached.

Please advise some more medicine to get rid of calf muscle issue.

Blood Tests Reports attached.

Hello,

I have gone through your question question and reports. Blood sugar and HbA1c levels are deranged suggestive of diabetes. You can change maxmala forte to symbal 30 mg at night. Continue calcium supplements. Consult a physician for diabetes.
