I've had this cold and cough going on since last Thursday, and my doctor put me on Azitab 500 for five days. I took a Covid test on Monday, and thankfully it came back negative. But now, since Tuesday, I can't smell or taste anything properly. It's frustrating because all I can taste is this constant sour flavor. Do you think I should get tested for Covid again?

Patient is advised to continue tab azitab 500mg for 5 days.

I'm using cepodem xp 325, Sinarest, and a nasal spray. I was just wondering, how long after using the nasal spray can I do steam inhalation? I read somewhere that the nasal spray works for around 12 hours, so is it okay to do steam maybe 5 or 6 hours after the spray?

It is generally recommended to wait at least 1-2 hours after using a nasal spray before doing steam inhalation. This allows the nasal spray to be absorbed properly and have its intended effect. So, you can safely do steam inhalation 5-6 hours after using Sinarest nasal spray. Remember to follow the recommended dosage of Sinarest and consult your healthcare provider if you have any concerns.
