Medicines in Pregnancy
My wife is now 29 weeks pregnant. Doctor had
recommended usual medicines of Iron, Folic
Acid, Calcium etc. But 20 days back doctor has
prescribed Alamin M Forte, but since it was
not available that time locally, I took astymin
M forte, which she is taking still. This medicine
is a multivitamin which has certain Amino
Acids, Namely, L Arginine, L Lysine HCL, DL
Methionine,L leucine, L Valine, L Isoleucine,
L Phenylalanine,L Tryptophan, L Threonine,
L Histidine HCL plus certain vitamins and
minerals in it.
This medicines is recommended 2 times a
day so my wife is taking this 2 times since last
twenty days. Also doctor advised another tablet of multivitamin which has 10 mg of lycopene in it. It was suggested to take once a day. My wife is taking it since last 15 days.
So my question is : whether amino acids which are mentioned above and lycopene (10 mg) are safe to take in pregnancy?

Bacterial vaginosis
I was prescribed oral capsules of Zoflonid (ofloxacin 200mg + ornidazole 500mg) by a doctor while out of the country. (The first time I had BV, I was given Micronor.) We did not do a culture test because I will be in transit by the time the results are ready, so he gave me this broad spectrum antibiotic to take until I can see my primary doctor.
I just want to know: one, if it's ok to take this drug; and two, if it will interact with my antidepressant (venlafaxine HCl ER, 75mg daily).
