Question 2

I'm feeling under the weather with a fever today. I've heard mixed things about eating guava when you're sick. Some say it might make my fever worse, while others say it won't really impact my health. I'm not sure what to believe.

I'm currently taking Clavam 650 for my cold, runny nose, and cough, and I've been using Dolo 650 for fever starting today. But I've heard about this AB-Flo-N tablet and was wondering if it's better for dealing with cold and cough symptoms than Clavam 650, or is it only meant for asthma?
