Can I take Dolo 650 while I'm on TB treatment if I have a fever? Also, when can I expect this fever to go away? I've been on medication for 29 days now.

It's generally safe to take Dolo 650 for fever during tuberculosis treatment, but it's important to follow your doctor's advice for specific medications and dosage. The duration of fever can vary depending on the severity of the infection and how your body responds to treatment. If the fever persists, it's a good idea to consult your doctor for further evaluation.

I've been having these asthma attacks more frequently in the past few days. It used to happen only occasionally and would go away with an asthalin inhaler, but now it's like 2 to 3 times a day. I'm feeling breathless and sometimes hear a wheezing sound. Could it be the dust I encounter while traveling that's causing this? Also, right after I wake up, the symptoms seem to get worse, with a lot of sputum and my eyes get irritated and my throat starts itching. What could be going on here?

Salbutamol inhaler and budesonide 200 sos is advised for breathing difficulty.

I'm a bit concerned because lately, I've been noticing blood in my saliva. It used to come from my gum near my teeth sometimes, but now I've also started to cough and see blood a few minutes afterward. I'm really trying to figure out if this could be related to issues with my teeth, or if it might have something to do with my chest or throat. Any ideas on what might be going on?
