I accidentally took an Ecosprin 75mg pill instead of my Montek LC tablet. Should I be worried about this mix-up? I don't have any health problems otherwise. Could you let me know if I might face any issues?

You have accidentally taken Ecosprin 75mg instead of Montek LC tablet. Ecosprin contains aspirin which is a blood thinner and Montek LC is a combination of Montelukast and Levocetirizine used for asthma and allergy symptoms. Since you do not have any health issues, the accidental intake of Ecosprin should not cause any immediate harm. However, it is important to be cautious with medication mix-ups in the future. For now, you can monitor for any signs of stomach upset, nausea, or bleeding. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it is advisable to seek medical attention.

I was recently told I have a low vitamin B12 level, something like 179 pgml, and my cholesterol is kind of borderline too. Lately, I've been feeling really tired, can't focus, and sometimes I get confused or even have trouble keeping my balance. Do you think I should start taking B12 supplements? If so, could you recommend a good one? I'm kind of worried about these symptoms.

I've been dealing with some lingering symptoms after testing negative for COVID. It's been 26 days since I initially tested positive, but I'm still experiencing a mild fever, mild cough, and body aches. I noticed my CRP levels are at 4.4, which is double what they were before I had COVID. I'm just wondering, what should I do about this?
