Question: I took Androgena tab for Hairloss. I also to a Multivitamin called Anavite by gaspari nutritin for my regular intake. Recently i am noticing redness in eyes as like conjuctivities. its not ggoing for more that 2-3 weeks. is it a side effect of androgena tablet? or multivitamin tablet?
Brief Answer:
Red eye is unrelated to these drugs
Detailed Answer:
Hello, XXXX.
I understand your concern.
This is unlikely to be the side effect of Androgena or Anvite.
Both these drugs do not cause eye side effects like conjunctivitis.
The red eye can be due to an unrecognised infection.
Short course of eye drop antibiotics will help.
Another possibility could be allergy to some component of the medicines but it is usually associated with itching and other symptoms.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
