I'm a bit concerned about using Mucaine syrup. Can it make you sleepy or cause drowsiness? Also, what's the best time to take it, before or after a meal?

Hey, so I've got some bilirubin levels here, and I'm a bit confused about what they mean. My Bilirubin Total is 1.95, Bilirubin Direct is 0.57, and Bilirubin Indirect is 1.38. I'm not sure if these numbers are something I should be worried about. Could you let me know which type of doctor I should talk to about this?
Consult with a Gastroenterologist or Hepatologist: This will help determine the underlying cause of your elevated bilirubin levels. Further Testing: The doctor might suggest tests such as liver function tests, ultrasound, or CT scans of the liver and biliary system to investigate the source of the issue. Lifestyle Adjustments: Depending on the cause, your doctor may recommend dietary changes, avoiding alcohol, or medication. If you experience symptoms such as yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark urine, abdominal pain, or fatigue, be sure to mention these when you consult your doctor.
