I'm currently treating my acne and my doctor told me to take Azithromycin 500mg three times a week before meals, but I've been having really bad loose motions on the days I take it, like up to four times. It's making me feel like all my energy is drained. Is this a normal side effect? Should I just keep taking it or is it better to stop?

View allI'm seeing these black lines on both sides of my index fingernail and I just noticed them two days ago. Its worrying me a bit. I've been taking Amlopres AT 25 mg for my blood pressure for the past 6 years. Could this medication be related to what's happening with my nail? Or is there something else I should be concerned about?
The black lines on your nails could be due to a condition called splinter hemorrhages, which are tiny areas of bleeding under the nails. In your case, it may be related to the long-term use of Amlopres At (Amlodipine) for your blood pressure. I recommend consulting with a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and discuss appropriate treatment options. In the meantime, you can continue taking your Amlopres At as prescribed.

I'm feeling really confused right now. I just found out I'm positive for HSV1 and I'm not sure what to do. Is there any kind of cure for it? Also, I'm wondering if I can marry someone who's HSV1 negative without telling them about my situation. And is it possible to have kids in the future? I could really use some advice on how to handle this.
HSV-1 (Herpes Simplex Virus) is manageable with antiviral medication, but there is no permanent cure. It's crucial to inform your partner about your condition before marriage to ensure informed decision-making. With proper care, you can have children, but taking precautions during pregnancy and birth is essential to prevent transmission.

I'm dealing with a persistent fungal infection on my face that's been bothering me for about a year. I was on itraconazole capsules from Dr. Reddy's and clotrimazole ointment for three months, and it seemed to clear up for a bit. But as soon as I finished the medication, it came back within a week. I'm an MBBS student at PIMS in Jalandhar, and I'm wondering if there are any injectable options available for this?
