Can Meprate Be Taken To Postpone Menstruation?
Question: Hi, I have 4 months baby boy. I'm expecting next menstrual date is around 23-OCT-2015. But around this date, we are having function. I don't want to go into that mess-up. I called up my doctor, she said take two tablets daily "Meprate10mg" to postpone. I want to know, is it safe to use this tablet to postpone the date. Please guide me.

Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
Yes dear it is a simple and safe tablet routinely prescribed for this purpose.
