Can Sangobion be taken for alpha thalassemia trait?
Patient: In my blood test results, it shows that I have alpha thalassaemia trait and my MCV and MCH is below the average range. I constantly suffer from shortness of breath, weakness for many years. Can I take Sangobion (a kind of iron supplement)? Or should I take spirulina to alter the condition. A doctor suggest me to take folic acid, another doctor ask me to take antidepressant drug. Another one suggest hormone treatment. I am 47 years old now. I only have one day of menstruation and only traces of it for almost half a year. Ms. Hong. Doctor: Hello, Thank you for your contact to health care magic. I understand your concern. If I am your doctor I suggest you to take sangobion. As your MCV and much both are below normal there is strong need of increasing the iron and so haemoglobin. I will be happy to answer your further concernYou can contact me. Dr Arun Tank. Infectious disease specialist. Thank you.
