I'm a big fan of pork and eat it quite often. Recently, my biology teacher mentioned something about helminths and suggested that people who love pork should consider taking albendazole, although I'm not entirely sure if that's how you spell it. Should I be taking this too? If so, how many tablets should I take, and when should I be taking them?

I'm dealing with a fever that's been going on for two days now. The doctor mentioned it's viral, but I'm just wondering how long it'll usually take to get better. Would it be a few more days, or could it last longer?

-Viral fevers usually last 35 days, but rest and hydration can help you recover faster. If the fever persists beyond 5 days or worsens, follow up with your doctor. Take care!

Hey, I've been taking Supradyn and Becosule, and I'm wondering if it's okay to use them regularly. Should I take a break after a month or just keep going? What's the longest duration I can safely take these vitamins?

Supradyn and Becosule can be taken regularly if advised by a doctor, as they are generally safe for long-term use to address vitamin deficiencies. However, its best to reassess your need for them every 1-3 months to avoid overuse and ensure theyre still necessary for your health.
