Two medicines can be taken together?

Hello My father in law (age 75) had been prescribed two medicines separately by two doctors in a short time gap. I wanted to know whether these medicines can be taken together in a day or not. He is facing constant dizziness and loss of sense of balance while walking almost all the time. The medicines are Syndopa 110 and Strocit plus.

Tegretol advice and side effects

I have impaired awareness seizures & take tegretol 200mg morning / 300mg nighttime. 53kg/177cm Titration started Jan 2026. Should nighttime very intense teeth grinding, thrashing, panicky noises (definitely seizure and not parasomnia) be improving by now? Daytime has improved a bit. What is the normal expected timeline? Also have IUD for adenomyosis. IUD controlled pain but now tegretol has caused lots of uterine cramping. What options to manage this or any long term suggestions that helps? Also any quick general advice for someone on tegretol long term? Risks and how to minimize deficiencies? Thank you for your time your advice is greatly appreciated.

Ladakh trip while having seizure

Hello Doctor, I had a single seizure in June 2025 and have been taking my medication regularly since then. I have not had any seizures after that. I am planning a trip to Ladakh in a few months, which involves long train travel and high altitude. I want to know if it is safe for me to travel in these conditions, especially considering sleep changes and altitude. Also, could you please guide me on what precautions I should take during the trip, what symptoms I should watch for, and what I should do if a seizure happens while traveling? Should I carry any emergency medication or take any additional precautions? Thank you.
