I was diagnosed with COVID on Tuesday the 20th and started the meds. I've been getting a fever every day since the 22nd, like every 20 hours or so. At first, I took Dolo, but on the 23rd and today, the 24th, I could only get my hands on Meftal 250 DT. I'm worried because it's an NSAID and I've taken it for two days straight. Will that cause me any stomach trouble? I'm trying to get Dolo again in the meantime. Do you think I should be taking any precautions?

I'm trying to understand if azithral 250mg and azithral 250mg DT are the same thing. If I run out of azithral 250mg DT, is it okay to switch to azithral 250mg, or are they different enough that I should stick with the DT version?

both are same , you can use either of it

I've been prescribed Azicip 500 and I noticed there's another medication called Azax 500. Are these two the same thing, or is there a significant difference between them? I'm a bit confused and wondering if it's safe or okay for me to take both at the same time?

yes both are same

I'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.
