Loprin (low dose aspirin) is given in patients with intrauterine growth retardation of baby mostly due to antiphospholipid syndrome or thrombophilias. Lupigest (progesterone) hormone is to fulfill the deficiency of progesterone in pregnancy like in cases of threatened abortions. Both medicines are different, have different indications in pregnancy and are not subsitute to each other.
hi,thanks for query.No,you can not.Both things are entirely different and have different role to play.Maintain and lupigest are hormones and given in case where its deficiency is suspected.Please do not supplement without your doctors advise.Apart from please take proper rest and take good food and have regular follow up with your doctor.
wishing you good health.
