Eutroxsig does not generally cause numbness but may cause anxiety; It can be safely taken together with Nurofen
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to "Ask a Doctor" service,
Numbness is not a usual side effect of eutroxsig. It may cause irritability, nervousness, shakiness, heart racing, etc. So, it is less likely your numbness is directly related to its use.
On the other hand, eutroxsig may cause a patient to be more nervous and numbness may result if the patient is having anxiety. If you are also having other symptoms mentioned above such as shakiness, feeling anxious, racing heart, feeling too hot, sweating, irritability, diarrhea, etc, then you will need to talk with your doctor and consider reducing the dose of eutroxsig. Sometimes, when patients take higher than needed dose these side effects may happen.
As for taking eutroxsig with Nurofen, it is safe to take them together as there is no major interaction between the two drugs.
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj
