Have you ever bothered to ask yourself why your pimples gets worse when you are pregnant or when your are in your period ?
You don’t have pimples but when it’s your period you start seeing pimples, it’s not like you eat groundnuts.

You have little pimples but when it’s your period, close to it or when you are pregnant, pimples everywhere. Have you bothered to ask yourself why ?
Don’t bother to look anywhere else, the answer is right in you. It’s the hormones.
During your period and when you’re pregnant the hormones in your body go above their normal levels and they may result in increased sebum production (by the sebaceous grands).
when this sebum (oily secretion) becomes trapped due to the blockage of ur skin pores, u have pimples.

Eating groundnuts or peanuts do not cause pimples. Pimples results when their is blockage of skin pores to the outflow of sebum (an oily secretion of the sebaceous gland which protects the skin).

5. Dexamethasone interacts with birth control pills.
6. Don’t take take Dexamethasone for weight gain. Using it for such will only harm you. Only use it when prescribed. Dexamethasone works by reducing your immune system, it is to be used only when prescribed because the benefits outweighs the risks. Using it on your own is bad.

How to effectively use your drugs (Omeprazole and Antacids) :

.If you have ulcer and you are making use of Omeprazole, take it before eating.
.If you are using antacids (eg Mismag) take it before eating especially if you also experience heartburn and/or indigestion.
.If you are using Omeprazole and an antacid, take the antacid and give space of at least 3hrs before taking the omeprazole. If you are to take the omeprazole first, space it for at least 2hrs before taking the antacid.
This is because taking them together or at a time will result in drug-drug interaction.
