What is the use of susten 200 and emfolic dha?
Patient: I am 30 years old, my height is 5feet 1inch and weight is 53 kgs, my BP - 120/70mmhg. My LMP is 5 december 2011 on 10th january I came to know that I am pregnant by pregnancy kit test done at home. Yesterday I consulted Gynaecologist; she prescribed me Emfolic DHA (od/morning) and susten 200 (od/night)for 1 month. My menstrual cycles were very regular. Is the prescription is correct one. Shall I take susten 200? Doctor: Hi,Susten is a Progestin which is a female hormone. It works by correcting the levels of progesterone, thereby stimulating the lining of the uterus to prepare for a pregnancy and protect an existing pregnancy. This helps in the treatment of infertility and prevents spontaneous abortion (miscarriage). Progesterone is especially helpful in suspected deficiency of the hormone.Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Regards, Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
