Hi Doctor, I m 33weeks and 2 days pregnant today. My OB has given me ARG 9 sachet one day each to increase the weight of the baby. In my last scan it was 1.3kg when it should ve been 1.5 kg. But past 2 days I m having itching in my feet(sole). I hv been taking UDILIV 300mg and was relieved of itching. But is it reoccurring due to ARG 9? Should I stop taking ARG 9? Plz advise.
Hi, I think itching is not due to arginine. You can continue taking that. Itching is commonly due to cholestasis of pregnancy.  Get a liver function test done. You can apply calamine lotion over itchy areas. You can continue ursodeoxycholic acid. You can also take syrup liv 52 2 teaspoon twice a day. Hope it helps.
