I'm curious about deworming for adults in the 40-50 age range. Should we be doing it even if everything seems fine, or is it unnecessary? Also, would taking albendazole be safe in such cases?

Question

I'm a bit worried because I got injured 4 months ago on a rusty iron plate, and I had a tetanus shot then. Now, I've hurt myself again, this time on an iron shutter. Do you think I need to get another tetanus injection? How long does the effect of the shot usually last?

Question

I've been dealing with a cold, cough, and fever about 10 to 15 days ago. Now, even though my body still feels hot, there's no fever when I use a thermometer. I'm also experiencing a bit of weakness. Any idea what these symptoms could mean? What medication could help prevent or cure this?

Question

I'm wondering if it's okay to take doxy 1 l dr Forte capsules along with prednisolone Nilsu P and enteromycetin capsules. Are there any side effects or interactions I should know about? It's a mix, and I just want to be sure it's all safe.
