I'm currently on Augmentin 650mg and have been taking it twice a day for the past 5 days. I'm almost fully recovered now, but I'm unsure if I should continue the course for 5 days or stretch it to 7 days. What's the best approach here?

View allI'm struggling with not being able to stand for long periods, which makes everyday things like food shopping, cooking, cleaning, and even going to the mall or mowing the lawn really exhausting for me. It's starting to worry me. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this or how I can manage it better?
Madam based on the history you have given I think you should know that there are many reasons which causes leg muscle pain like poor nutrition diet causing easy fatigue....vitamin d,calcium,vitamin b12 etc deficiency may be the cause,low haemoglobin is other possibility...musculoskeletal disorders should be ruled out consult nearest physicians for clinical examination they will do the needful.

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?
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.
