Question

My dad's been dealing with a fever and a bad cold for the last couple of days. He's been taking Dolo 650 and just started on Taxim O 200 mg this morning. His fever is back again, can I give him Dolo now? Is it alright to take it along with Taxim?

Yes, you can give your dad Dolo 650 for his fever while he is taking Taxim O 200 mg antibiotics. Dolo 650 contains paracetamol which is safe to take with most antibiotics, including Taxim O. The usual dosage for Dolo 650 is 1 tablet every 4-6 hours as needed for fever. Just make sure not to exceed the maximum daily dose of paracetamol.

Question

I'm wondering if it's safe to take multivitamin tablets every day without checking with a doctor first. Also, is it necessary to do any blood tests before starting on multivitamins? Just a bit concerned about whether it's really okay to self-prescribe these or if there's something I should watch out for.

Question

I'm a bit confused and worried. The doctor first suggested I take Montec LC for three days, but then after one day, they added Azee500 for another three days. Is it okay to take both medications at the same time, or could there be any issues with that?

Can I take Dolo 650 for a cold, headache, and tonsils? I'm hoping you can get back to me as soon as possible.
