I'm a bit confused about how much Albendazole an adult should take. Is there a specific dosage we should be aware of? Also, how often is it safe to take this medication? Would appreciate some guidance on this.

The usual dose of Albendazole for adults is 400 mg as a single dose for common parasitic infections. Depending on the condition (e.g., deworming or specific parasitic infections like hydatid disease), the frequency may vary. Always follow your doctor's advice for proper dosing and duration.

I've been dealing with Typhoid and was on antibiotics, but now I'm having a bit of trouble with my breathing for the last couple of days. Could this be tied to the Typhoid, or should I be worried about something else going on?

it is not due to typhoid, do one chest xray

I've been dealing with a high fever for three days, and it kept staying over 101 and even hit 103.5 at one point before dropping to 99.5 on the same day. I checked in with a doctor and was told to take Dolo 650 and Meftal Forte, which I did. But now, three days later, I'm still feeling super weak, sleeping around 18 hours a day. Some old muscle pains in my left hand have started up again too, which might be from being so weak. I've been taking Neromet, a multi-vitamin, and vitamin C tablets, but they're not helping much. Today I've noticed redness all over my body, which I think could be an allergic reaction to some medication since this has never happened before. What could be going on here?

Hi Sunil, it seems like your body is still recovering from the fever, which is causing the prolonged weakness and muscle pain. The redness could be an allergic reaction to the medication, and it's important to consult your doctor to rule out any severe reactions. Rest, hydration, and monitoring your symptoms closely are key; if the redness worsens or new symptoms appear, seek immediate medical attention.
