Can I take Dolo 650 and Cetirizine together? I'm not sure if it's safe to mix them, and I don't want to have any side effects. I feel like I need both, but I'm just worried. What do you think?

A persistent cough with blood can be concerning.

Despite a normal chest X-ray, the presence of blood in your cough requires further investigation.

Possible causes:

  • Pulmonary embolism
  • Lung cancer
  • Tuberculosis
  • Bronchitis
  • Pneumonia

Consult a pulmonologist or a specialist for:

  • Computed Tomography (CT) scan
  • Bronchoscopy
  • Sputum analysis
  • Blood tests

Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial.

A rat bit me last week and I already got a TT injection along with an anti-rabies shot. I'm wondering if I should go for the other two anti-rabies injections or if I'm good since I'm not really feeling any pain where the scratch is. Is there another step I should be taking here?

Yes, Tryptomer (Amitriptyline) can cause heartburn as a side effect, especially when taken in the evening. Other possible gastrointestinal side effects of Tryptomer include nausea, dry mouth, and constipation. To alleviate nighttime heartburn, consider taking Tryptomer in the morning or with food. You can also try antacids or acid reducers, like ranitidine, to help manage heartburn symptoms. Consult your doctor or prescribing physician to discuss alternative dosing schedules or medications. They can help you balance the benefits of Tryptomer with its side effects.

I've been sneezing non-stop and have a runny nose since yesterday. Is it okay for me to use xylomist 0.1? Could you let me know if that's a good idea?

I'm really concerned about my husband's health. He recently got his blood test results and his B12 level is really low at 119. The doctor recommended he take a Hosit tablet every day and mix Convales powder in water. He's been following this regimen for the past 10 days, but he hasn't noticed any improvement. We're wondering if this is the right treatment plan or if he should have had an injection to quickly get his B12 levels up to around 300. What do you think?

The prescribed medications, Hosit (cyanocobalamin) tablets and Convales powder, are oral supplements aimed at increasing vitamin B12 levels; however, given your husband's severe deficiency (119), an injection course might be more effective in rapidly raising levels to the desired range (200-300); consult his doctor to discuss the possibility of switching to injectable B12 or adding it to his current oral regimen.
