I'm dealing with bronchitis and got prescribed Ascoril LS cough syrup. Can you tell me how many days I should be using it? I'm just trying to make sure I'm doing everything right for my recovery.

View allI've been dealing with a viral fever for over a week now, and it's stubbornly stuck around 100F. Despite taking pyrigesic 650 mg and some antibiotics, there hasn't been any improvement. Why isn't my fever going down? Should I be worried about anything else?

I'm feeling a bit worried because I had a sore throat and fever a while ago, and my doctor prescribed me Forenza 325mg, which really helped after five days. But now, just a few days back, my sore throat returned, so I went back to the doctor and got prescribed a combination of cefpodoxime and azithromycin. I'm really concerned about taking both together because I read online about potential drug interactions. So, I've only been taking cefpodoxime 200mg twice a day for the last three days, but I don't see any improvement yet. Is it safe to take cefpodoxime again even though I used it before? And do you know if there are any interactions between cefpodoxime and azithromycin? I'd really appreciate any advice on this.

I'm really worried about my condition. I've been dealing with typhoid for the last three months and was on monocef injections. Now, I'm constantly getting a low-grade fever between 99 and 100, especially after even a small amount of exertion, though it gets better with rest. I was just told I have a vitamin D deficiency with a level of 7.3 from the CLIA method, and my blood pressure seems low too. I'm not currently taking any medication. What could be causing all of this, and what should I do next?
