I'm feeling a bit worried because I had a sore throat and fever a while ago, and my doctor prescribed me Forenza 325mg, which really helped after five days. But now, just a few days back, my sore throat returned, so I went back to the doctor and got prescribed a combination of cefpodoxime and azithromycin. I'm really concerned about taking both together because I read online about potential drug interactions. So, I've only been taking cefpodoxime 200mg twice a day for the last three days, but I don't see any improvement yet. Is it safe to take cefpodoxime again even though I used it before? And do you know if there are any interactions between cefpodoxime and azithromycin? I'd really appreciate any advice on this.

Question

I'm really concerned about my husband's RT PCR report. His RdRp and N gene CT values are 24 and 23. He had a fever from Tuesday to Thursday, then it went away for two days, but now he's back to having a fever at 100 this morning. He's only taking paracetamol and doesn't have any other symptoms right now. But I've developed a dry cough since yesterday, though I don't have a fever. Our kid seems fine at the moment. What should we do next, and are there any specific medicines you recommend for both of us?

I need to get a medical fitness certificate for my driving license application, and I'm supposed to submit it at the RTO in Pune on the day of my appointment. Could you tell me how I should go about getting this certificate? Do I need to visit a specific clinic or doctor in Pune? Also, are there certain tests or checks that I should expect during this process? Just want to make sure I have everything ready and don't run into any surprises.
