Can Crocin be given for fever?
Patient: Hi sir,My dad M.Balram Reddy,age-55,male had blood count 5 in the month of February 2010.The treatment started on May this year under the supervision of NIRNI S.S of Indo American Cancer Hospital in Hyderabad.He asked us to transfuse blood and doing so the blood count went on to 10, later it gradually got down and currently he has haemoglobin-6.1.He suggested to take tonic .I felt Doctor was checking for the symptoms of blood cancer instead of diagnosing!!From past two days dad is suffering from fever ranging 102-104c and he says he is not hungry and has become weak...Even we consulted an Ayurveda doctor he gave medicines for tuning up the liver.  will try sending the scan of the medical tests too.Could you please provide us a suggestion what can be done! Can we give some crocin to the fever to subside? My mail  YYYY@YYYY  you..:) Doctor: hi sir, welcome to HCG, i understand ur problem, yes sir, crocin can given for fever. but why dont u use dolo 650 tab thrice a day with antibiotic extracef plus200 twice a day after food... maybe ur dad have gastritis also, plz use pantafol dsr once before breakfast... and ur dad heamoglobin is low, use iron sucrose IV inj weekly once, it will increase his blood, and make him stronger.. he need 10 inj weekly once... hope u satisfy with my answer, thank u
