5 Days W Sambong 500mg Tablet

I am a 70 yrs old male and recently had a U.A. I consulted my Dr. re the results and he said I have stones in my gall bladder. He prescribed for me Sambong leaf 500 mg tablet 2x a day. After taking them for 5 days (10 tablets) I feel very weak maybe because of urinating continously. I go to the CR every 1 hr. sometimes less than an hour. I drink plenty of water or else I will be dehydrated. Is it possible that all my nutrients and minerals goes w/ my pee.I continue taking the drug after a day stop. Is it OK if I reduce the dosage to once a day. BTW I had a fever on the 5th day and had to take Flu Max every 4 hr. I suspect I had flu thats why I stopped taking Sambong tablet. My Dr. is on vac for 2 mos.

This is a follow up question re my post last Tue. Oct. 08, 2013. After prolonged use of Sambong leaf 500 mg tablet, is it possible it can cause Steven Johnson Syndrome. I need an answer ASAP.

Hello, Romulo! How are you doing?

Yes, if you're getting dehydrated, it can cause a loss of your minerals and nutrients.

Sambong is actually an herb, not a medication, but it works as a diuretic to remove excess fluid from the body. I am not sure how it is supposed to help with gallstones.

And no, Stevens-Johnson syndrome is caused by some medications, such as antibiotics or severe infections.

Have you consulted your doctor again, yet?
