General & Family Physician Dr. Nilesh Soni's  Response
Susten contains progesterone which is require for proper implantation and growth of embryo during the initial phase of pregnancy.
As your pregnancy test is positive and you want to continue with pregnancy, Doctor has given you this medicine to prevent miscarriage.
Second tablet will be mostly folgel and not folgen.
Folgel contains folic acid which is routinely given to all the pregnant women in the first three months of prengnecy to prevent congenital abnormality (related to brain and spine) in the developing baby.
I hope this will be helpful.
Take care.
