I recently got my Covishield shot and was told to take paracetamol afterward. I've got Sinarest at home, which I noticed contains paracetamol along with some other stuff. Do you think it's alright if I just take the Sinarest instead?

Sinarest contains paracetamol along with other ingredients such as phenylephrine and chlorpheniramine. It is safe to take Sinarest for relief of symptoms such as fever and body aches after your Covishield jab.

View allI've got this little situation where my puppy, who's just a stray and about one and a half months old, accidentally nipped my thumb while I was feeding him. It wasn't a deep bite, just caught me for a split second, but it did break the skin a bit and I noticed a tiny bit of blood. It's been about 23 hours now, and there's no pain or bleeding anymore. I washed the area really well and put some antibacterial cream on it right away. Should I be worried about getting an injection for this, or am I good? Just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing here.

I'm really curious about something is there a specific type of tablet that can actually cause a fever? I came across some information, but it wasn't very clear. Could you maybe explain if this is safe or even possible? I'm a bit worried about what I've been reading.
You can't get fever by taking tablets. There are many ways of getting infected and getting fever

Vaccine effectiveness may vary in relation to many factors globally but on a average, flu vaccination reduces the risk of influenza by 40 - 60 % among the overall population during seasons when most circulating flu viruses are well matched to the flu vaccine.
