Question: Hi Doctor,
As discussed, I have done all the tests for my cough. I did PFT, Chest Ex - Ray, Ultra Sound full stomach, Every thing was fine apart from my Hemoglobin which was 10.5.
Doctor has given me the advise to take -
1) 1 pill of Montek for 15 days
2) 1 pill of Scor HB per day for 1 month
3) 2 Sachets of Wowmino per day.
Can you suggest all these medicines are good to increase the HB levels and are there any side effects or should I take any other medicines,
