I accidentally took a 500mg azithromycin tablet thinking it was an anti-allergic medicine. Should I continue taking it for the full 3-day course, or is it okay to stop now and not take any more?

View allI'm a bit puzzled about something. My Alkaline phosphatase level came back at 135. I've never had alcohol and I'm not experiencing any digestive or stomach problems. Is this level something I should be concerned about, or is it considered normal?
In summary, 135 IUL is not necessarily abnormal, but it's worth monitoring in consultation with your healthcare provider if you have any other symptoms or health concerns

My brother just found out he has typhoid fever. Can you help me figure out a good diet plan for him? Like, what foods should he eat and what should he stay away from? Also, any tips on how we can keep everything hygienic during this time would be really helpful.
For typhoid fever, it is important to follow a specific diet to aid in recovery. Here is a suggested diet chart: - Foods to be taken: Easily digestible foods such as boiled vegetables, fruits, yogurt, soups, porridge, and well-cooked rice. - Foods to be avoided: Spicy foods, oily foods, raw vegetables, and undercooked meats should be avoided. - Hygiene tips: It is important to maintain good hygiene by washing hands regularly, drinking only clean and boiled water, and avoiding street food. In addition to the diet, it is important for your brother to take prescribed antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin as per the doctor's recommendation. Make sure he completes the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.

I've been having these Covid symptoms since this morning and I've already done an RT PCR test. After talking to a doctor on Practo, I started on some meds. My Spo2 levels seem to fluctuate between 93 and 97 on my left index finger, but they read 97-99 on my right index. Is it normal for the oxygen levels to be different on each finger? What's the ideal range I should be looking for? And at what point should I be worried? My fever is currently at 101F.
ideal above 94 percent
