Can Duvadilan Retard Tablet Cause Diarrhea During Pregnancy?
Hi, I have been prescribed with Duvadilan Retard for 10 days as I have to travel. I am 16 weeks pregnant. Since I started having the med, I am suffering from loose motions. I have been having Duphaston since 5th week. Could you please suggest if it is because of Duvadilan Retard medicine?
