I'm dealing with a stomach upset and heard that Norflox TZ might help. Is taking one dose per day effective? Could you provide any advice or alternatives? It's quite urgent.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Norflox TZ is a combination medication that contains Norfloxacin and Tinidazole. It is commonly used to treat bacterial infections in the stomach and intestines. The usual recommended dosage for Norflox TZ is one tablet twice a day, taken after meals. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any medication to ensure it is appropriate for your specific condition.

View allI'm feeling this strange cold and minty sensation in my throat, and it's been going on for almost a week now. I stopped smoking because I thought that might be causing it, but it's still there. I read somewhere that it might be acid reflux, but I'm not really sure how that would happen. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's dealing with both dengue and typhoid right now, and I'm not sure what kind of diet would be best for her. The big issue is that nothing seems to be digesting properly - even water passes through her really quickly, like within 15 minutes. Is there something specific I should be feeding her to help with this?

I'm really concerned about my wife's recent LFT blood test results. Her Alkaline Phosphatase level is at 141 UL, but everything else seems pretty normal. I'm wondering if there's anything specific she should do to be cautious. Is taking Liv 52 a good idea in this situation? All her scan reports came back normal, so I'm a bit confused about the next steps. Could you provide some advice on this?
