I'm currently taking Montair LC, Levoflox 500, and Pan40 for a lower respiratory tract infection. I'm wondering if it's okay to also take vitamin tablets, specifically DE, C, and B12, alongside these medications. Would that cause any issues, or is it safe to mix them?

Question

I'm really worried about my father's health. He's 56 and just had a CT score of 925 at the end of April. His CRP is 40.5 mg, serum LDH is 823.1 UL, D-Dimer is 319.92 ngmL, and ferritin is 769.63 ngmL. His oxygen levels keep fluctuating between 90 and 92, occasionally hitting 93 or 94. He started on steroids and anticoagulants from May 1st, but before that, he had dexona and deriphyllin for about one and a half days at the end of April. What should we do next? Is there anything specific we need to watch out for or ask his doctor about?

Question

I'm really worried about my brother who was diagnosed with MDR TB. He went through three months of injections and took a lot of medicines for almost a year, but sometimes he still has a cough. It's not all day, but it happens occasionally. How can we check his current condition? What tests would show if the TB is completely gone? Would a chest X-ray help? He's not on meds anymore, so Im wondering if MDR TB is something that stays for life or if it can be fully treated. How long does the treatment usually last? Is it possible for him to be completely cured? I'm not sure what steps we should take next.

Question

I'm dealing with a cough that comes with phlegm and a bit of a wheezing sound. I took a chest X-ray PA yesterday and I've attached the report. Can you tell me if everything looks normal? Right now, I'm using Ambrocof LS for the cough. Also, I have a one-year-old baby. Can you suggest any medication for me?
