Hello, thank you for your question! There are other options for you! I invite you to contact your pharmacist who can personalize a consultation with you and suggest alternatives to your doctor. As for non-pharmacological measures, increasing your fiber intake (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, etc.) and a Mediterranean diet are the best options, along with moderate-intensity exercise for 150 minutes a week. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist Yes, for general situations regarding your health or medications you are already taking. However, it is impossible to make recommendations as to what you are asking for since this requires the possession of the whole picture. This is impossible here. On the other hand, your pharmacist is in the best position to advise you and, if necessary, make recommendations to your doctor. Sincerely Tom Samaha, pharmacist
