Can you please tell me whether it is side effect of abusing Spasmo Proxyvon? Is there any dietary supplement to make him gain weigh and health?
Brief Answer:
Serum potassium - deaddiction - Psychiatrist.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Yes, you have correctly used the term addicted to and now refrained from.
Weakness, falling flat on the ground, weakness in the limbs in the evening and night etc all are the symptoms of ''withdrawal''.
On a safer side get his blood test done for Serum Electrolytes :: A low potassium can cause similar problems
If this is normal I would recommend you to take him to a Psychiatrist and / or a de-addiction center.
Unless this problem is solved , it is difficult to get weight gain and health. Yet you can try with the Multi-vitamins. And if you can get one with the same color as that of spasmo proxyvon. Also give him coconut water during weakness and see the results for weaness, whether improved or not. You can also try giving Electral solution (ORS) during such attack and note the results.
