Sir, my father has been having a fever on and off for the last 3 months. He's been taking antibiotics and Crocin regularly, but there's no improvement. Could there be a reason why he's not getting better, and should we be worried? What do you suggest we do next?

Question

I'm a 40-year-old male considering taking BIO D3 MAX capsules. I'm not sure what the right dose is, and I'm wondering if this should be a daily thing. Can you advise on how I should take them?

I've been dealing with a cold for the last three days and started feeling feverish the day before yesterday. I began taking Dolo 650, which helped a bit, but the feverish feeling returned in the evening. So, I also added Levo Citrizen and took both medications in the morning and at night. Yesterday, I ended up with a bad headache and took the same meds again last night. This morning, I feel a bit better, but I still have the cold, a light cough, and some feverish feelings. My temperature has been between 94 to 98F for the past three days. What do you suggest I do, and can you recommend any specific medications?
