Astymin forte = Multivitamins + Amino acids
Arg 9 sachet= Amino acids
Both are safe in pregnancy. It is believed that Aminoacids have some role in increase Amniotic fluid level. Ur AFI is 8.2cm so ur Gynecologist has given above medications to increase liquor volume.
In addition to above medications pls do:
1. Adequate hydration
2. Adequate rest
3. High protein diet
Which will help in Amniotic fluid enhancement.
