The elevated RDW-SD, RDW-CV, PDW, and MPV values may indicate variations in red blood cell and platelet size, which can be seen in various conditions, including nutritional deficiencies, anemia, or chronic diseases, but are not typically specific indicators of cancer, so it's essential to consult with your doctor to discuss these results in the context of your overall health and determine if further testing or evaluation is necessary.

Question 6

I'm really worried about my wife. She's running a fever, and her temperature is at 99.9. I wanted to check if it's okay to give her NICIP PLUS. What do you think?

Accepted Answer

NICIP PLUS is a combination medication containing Paracetamol, Nimesulide, and Serratiopeptidase. It is commonly used for fever and pain relief. However, it is important to note that Nimesulide is not recommended in many countries due to its potential side effects on the liver. For fever relief, you can consider giving her PARACETAMOL 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed. Make sure to keep her well-hydrated and monitor her temperature regularly. If the fever persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
