Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 30 year old unmarried female. I have begun taking Dexorange syrup. I just want to know for how long should I take the syrup. I have had a severe bout of anemia around 3 years back...& I suspect its coming back now...So in order to prevent it I have begun taking the syrup. Please guide
Although without complete data like purpose of taking dexorange, your initial hemoglobin level, any prolonged menstrual bleeding, or other medical illnesses. Ideally dexorange should increase your hemoglobin by 1g/100 ml every 7–10 days and a reticulocyte response within a week. It should be continued for 3 – 6 months to replete iron stores with a normal hemoglobin. Beside, the underlying cause of anemia should be sought out and treated accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
