I'm dealing with both dengue and typhoid at the same time, and my platelet count is at 1.9 lakh. I've tested positive for antigen NS1 and had a positive Widal test. Should I be worried about this and consider getting hospitalized, or is it something I can manage at home?

I'm a bit confused about what "this11 after food" and "food101 after food" means when it comes to taking my meds. Is there a certain way I should be timing them around my meals?

They both mean the same thing essentially. 1 tablet to be taken after food in the morning and in the evening.

I'm really worried about my mom who's been dealing with lymph nodes issues for two years now. We've done a bunch of tests like the histopathology and TB PCR, and luckily, they all came back negative for TB. There's no fluid in the lymph nodes, and she hasn't shown any symptoms like fever, weight loss, or tiredness. So, her doctor concluded it's not TB and put her on Clavam 650, Diclomol, and Montex LC for five days. I totally forgot to ask the doctor about how many Clavam 650 tablets she should be taking each day. Should it be one tablet or two? Could you please help me figure this out?

2 tablet

I've got a fever, headache, cold, and a throat infection, plus there's a mouth ulcer on the inside of my right cheek. I've got zedochef 200, parasafe 650, and vizylac capsule with me. I'm wondering if it's okay to take vizylac with the zedochef antibiotic?
