This image provides a summary of 30 common Outpatient Department (OPD) medications, categorized by their primary uses and standard dosages. To help make this information easier to navigate, I’ve organized the list into functional categories. 1. Pain, Inflammation & Fever These are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and analgesics used for common aches or chronic conditions. | Medicine | Primary Use | Typical Dosage | |---|---|---| | Celecoxib | Arthritis pain, inflammation | 200mg daily | | Naproxen | Pain, inflammation | 500mg twice daily | | Acetaminophen | Pain, fever | 500mg every 4-6 hours | | Ketorolac | Short-term moderate pain | 10mg every 4-6 hours | | Cyclobenzaprine | Muscle spasms | 10mg three times daily | 2. Gastrointestinal (Stomach & Digestion) Used for acid reflux, ulcers, and intestinal cramps. | Medicine | Primary Use | Typical Dosage | |---|---|---| | Esomeprazole | Acid reflux, GERD | 40mg daily | | Lansoprazole | Heartburn, ulcers | 30mg daily ...

SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) occurs when bacteria that normally live in the large intestine (the colon) migrate into the small intestine. This is problematic because the small intestine is meant for nutrient absorption, not heavy fermentation. When these bacteria set up shop there, they ferment the food you eat before you can absorb it, creating the gases and symptoms mentioned in your image. 🔍 Why it happens (The Root Causes) Your infographic accurately points to two major "protective mechanisms" that, when broken, lead to SIBO:  * Low Stomach Acid (Hypochlorhydria): Stomach acid is your first line of defense; it kills bacteria on your food. When you over-rely on antacids (as noted in your image), the stomach's pH rises, allowing bacteria to survive and move into the small intestine.  * Impaired Motility (The MMC): The Migrating Motor Complex (MMC) is like a "janitorial wave" that sweeps leftover food and bacteria out of the small intestine dur...

This infographic provides a holistic overview of Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) that acts as the primary fuel source for the cells lining your colon. It blends modern biological markers with Ayurvedic concepts (like Agni and Ama) to explain gut health. Here is a breakdown of the key information presented: 1. Core Functions: How Butyrate Heals The graphic identifies four primary ways butyrate supports your body:  * Strengthens the Gut Barrier: It fuels colonocytes (colon cells) and tightens "epithelial junctions." This prevents "leaky gut" by lowering Zonulin, a protein that regulates gut permeability.  * Calms Inflammation: It reduces inflammatory markers like TNF-alpha and IL-6. In Ayurvedic terms, it "pacifies Pitta-Vata."  * Improves Motility: It helps normalize the flow of waste through the digestive tract, supporting what Ayurveda calls Apana Vayu.  * The Gut-Brain Axis: Butyrate influences the nervous system, potentially calming anxiety an...

In India, the most accessible DORA is Lemborexant, sold under the brand name Dayvigo. Unlike the newer Daridorexant (Quviviq), which often requires specialized import, Dayvigo is manufactured and marketed locally by Eisai Pharmaceuticals India. Since you are diabetic, these are actually a great talking point for your doctor because they don't typically interfere with insulin or cause the morning "hangover" that can lead to missed meals or glucose monitoring. Where and How to Get Them DORAs are strictly Schedule H prescription drugs in India. You cannot buy them over the counter.  * Apollo Pharmacy / Netmeds / 1mg: You can find Dayvigo (Lemborexant) on these major platforms. It usually costs around ₹600–₹700 for a strip of 14 tablets (5mg).  * The Process: You will need a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner (ideally a Neurologist, Psychiatrist, or Sleep Specialist).  * Other Options: Suvorexant (Belsomra) is also technically available but is much hard...

Deciding on a knee replacement (Total Knee Arthroplasty) is less about a specific "deadline" and more about how much your knee is dictating your life. The diagram you shared shows advanced issues like osteoporotic bones, synovial thickening, and meniscus tears, which are common indicators that the joint is under significant stress. Here is a guide to help you evaluate if it’s the right time for surgery: 1. The "Quality of Life" Test Surgeons often say they "treat the patient, not the X-ray." Even if your imaging looks like the diagram, surgery is usually considered only when:  * Daily Limitations: You can no longer perform basic tasks like grocery shopping, getting out of a chair, or walking more than a block or two.  * Sleep Disruption: The pain is severe enough to wake you up at night or prevent you from falling asleep.  * Emotional Impact: You are avoiding social events or hobbies you love because the "mental math" of how much walk...
