I accidentally took Telma 40 mg instead of my usual omeprazole. What should I expect in terms of side effects? I'm a bit worried about any potential reactions.

In place of omeprazole, taking telma 40 mg can lead to potential side effects such as dizziness, headache, cough, diarrhea, and back pain. It is important to monitor for any signs of adverse reactions and consult your healthcare provider if any concerns arise. Keep monitoring your blood pressure, and rush to the hospital if it falls below 9060 mmhg.

I'm really concerned because I had some mosambi juice last night, and now I'm dealing with fever, tonsils, and feeling pretty weak. I took a Crocin this morning, but the fever's still hanging around. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?

I'm trying to figure out how to get a medical fitness certificate because I need one to start at my new job. I know it has to be from a registered medical practitioner, but I'm not entirely sure what qualifies someone as one. Can anyone who's a doctor give me this certificate, or are there specific requirements or types of doctors I should be looking for? Would really appreciate some guidance on this!

I've been recovering from dengue and it's been a week since I got better. My platelet count is over 250,000 now, but my TLC was 4000 a week ago. I'm itching to get back to my routine! I don't do heavy stuff, just some skipping and a few exercises. Is it okay for me to start again?

After recovering from dengue, it's essential to gradually resume physical activities, so you can start with low-intensity exercises like skipping and light cardio, but wait for at least 2-3 weeks before resuming full-fledged exercise routine, and ensure you're consuming a balanced diet rich in nutrients, iron, and folic acid to replenish lost platelets and support overall recovery, under the guidance of your doctor.
