I took Amoxicillin about 7 hours ago. Is it safe to take ibuprofen now, or could they interact badly? I'm just worried it might affect me.

I've been bitten by a rat, and I bled for a moment. The doctor gave me an anti-tetanus and a Rabipur injection. He also mentioned I need to take two more Rabipur injections with a 2-day gap in between. I'm wondering, is it really necessary to get those additional shots?

Yes you have to risk complete post exposure regimen of rabies vaccine and follow your doctors advice

I've been dealing with this viral fever, and my doctor recommended I take Zyrcold syrup. But now I've started having loose motions, and I'm worried that the syrup might be causing it. Could Zyrcold be the reason for this? Should I stop taking it or do something different?

Yes, in rare cases it can cause diarrhea but it will get cured soon.Drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration, which can occur with diarrhea. Drink water, oral rehydration solutions (ORS), clear soups, or electrolyte drinks.

I'm a bit concerned and need some advice. My workplace is asking everyone to get tested for the coronavirus before we return to the office. I've recently been to Singapore and I want to make sure I'm doing the right test. Could you let me know which test I should take to check if I have the virus? I'm feeling a little anxious about the whole situation.
