Andrei Popov

General medicinePain medicine7 years of experience

Dr. Andrei Popov is a General Practitioner with specialized training in chronic pain. He provides online consultations for adult patients in Spain and other European countries.

Dr. Popov understands that seeking help with weight-related concerns or pain that has persisted for months can be difficult. Many patients come to him after trying different approaches without feeling truly heard. During the consultation, the doctor creates a comfortable and supportive, non-judgmental environment where the patient’s medical history can be discussed in detail, questions can be answered, and the next steps can be decided together.

Weight Management and Metabolic Health

Dr. Popov can help assess overweight, obesity, and related conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or metabolic disorders. During the consultation, the patient’s medical history, test results, current medications, and previous treatments will be reviewed.

If you would like to learn about possible medication options or have already started treatment, the doctor can assess your situation, review the effectiveness and tolerability of the therapy, and clearly explain its benefits, potential risks, and alternatives.

Not every patient requires the same treatment. A consultation does not guarantee a prescription — it provides an objective medical assessment and a plan tailored to your individual situation.

Pain and General Medicine

You can also consult Dr. Popov regarding:

* chronic pain, migraines, neuralgia, and fibromyalgia;

* back, neck, lower back, or joint pain;

* hypertension, diabetes, and follow-up of chronic conditions;

* review of test results, medical reports, and current treatment;

* preventive medicine and a second medical opinion.

How the Consultation Works

The video consultation lasts up to 30 minutes. The doctor will listen carefully, review the information you provide, and explain the next steps in clear and understandable language.

If additional tests, an in-person consultation, or urgent medical care are required, the doctor will inform you directly.

Dr. Popov’s goal is to make sure the patient feels heard and leaves the consultation with a clear understanding of their condition and the next steps they can take.

2. What you need to know before you take Folic Acid ASPOL 10 mg capsules

Do not take Folic Acid ASPOL 10 mg capsules:

  • If you are allergic to folic acid or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • If you have a vitamin B12 deficiency anemia, since folic acid increases the requirements of this vitamin, worsening neurological symptoms.
  • Patient with Addisonian pernicious anemia may produce combined subacute degeneration of the spinal cord.

Warnings and precautions

Be particularly careful if you have an anemia of unknown origin.

Taking Folic Acid ASPOL 10 mg capsules with other medicines:

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.

Folic acid may decrease plasma concentrations of phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, and succinimides by increasing their metabolism and the frequency of convulsive crises. Therefore, concomitant use with these medicines is not recommended. If necessary, the doctor should closely monitor the patient and adjust the anticonvulsant dose accordingly.

The simultaneous administration of folic acid and chloramphenicol in patients with folate deficiency may antagonize the hematopoietic response to folic acid.

Other medicines that may adversely affect the absorption or metabolism of folic acid, potentially producing folate deficiency states, are: zinc supplements, antacids, cholestyramine, colestipol, triamterene, antimalarials, sulfasalazine, corticosteroids (prolonged use), oral contraceptives, antiepileptics (carbamazepine or valproic acid), folic acid antagonists (methotrexate, sulfonamides, trimethoprim, pyrimethamine, aminopterin, cotrimoxazole, triamterene), alcohol, or antituberculars.

The need for folic acid may increase in patients who are administered any of these medicines. Therefore, before starting treatment with Folic Acid ASPOL, the patient's clinical condition should be evaluated, as it may be necessary to adjust the dose.

Interference with diagnostic tests:

The administration of large and continuous doses of folic acid may reduce the concentration of vitamin B12 in the blood.
