I took Tesco Recovery Powder for an upset stomach but forgot it has paracetamol in it. Earlier I had a cocodamol tablet for post-surgery pain about 2-3 hours before. That's 500mg paracetamol around 7:45pm and then 1000mg at 10:15pm. I didn't go over the daily limit but could this combo cause any harm?

I'm taking this renerve plus tablet, and it's honestly so huge that it hurts my throat when I try to swallow it. I'm wondering if it's okay to cut the capsule in half and take it that way?

Yes you can take in that way.

I'm feeling unwell today with a headache and mild fever, and it's only getting worse because I'm also feeling cold and dealing with acidity. Is this something I should be worried about, and what can I do to feel better?

.you need to have food on time..do not wait till hunger pangs.maintain proper time. Divide your meal time to small proportions so that you dont over eat..secondly drink lots of water. ..atleast 8-10 glasses per day . thirdly.. You need to stroll for a min of 15 min after each meal...stress,tension,all these are also factors of acidity...avoid outside food,junk and oily food...better to have gone cooked food for few days..Thank you..For fever and cold I would suggest you to take paracetamo thrice a day..l and also drink water well
