What Ecospirin, Evion forte, Solfe and Calcimax tablets do?
Patient: Dear sir. I m in 35 weeks of pregnancy. I m taking Ecospirin, Evion forte, Solfe and Calcimax tablets as advised by doctor. May i know the purpose of these tablets. My weight is increasing rapidly. Due to any of the above tablets, the weight will be increased? Doctor: Hi,  They are used during pregnancy to prevent some complications. Ecospirin is commonly prescribed to prevent still birth and preeclampsia.  Evion forte also helps in preventing preeclampsia and intrauterine growth retardation. Solfe tablet has a combination of iron, folic acid and vitamin B-12 and commonly prescribed to prevent pregnancy associated anemia.  Calcimax tablet has a combination of vitamin-D, zinc sulfate, magnesium hydroxide and calcium. It is useful in preventing their deficiencies during pregnancy.  These medications are not associated with weight gain. I advise you to consult your doctor for further evaluation and to rule out the possible causes of rapid weight gain.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
