I'm feeling kind of anxious because I've got mild COVID symptoms, and I have both Azithromycin and paracetamol at home. Is it safe to take them together? Could there be any risks?

Yes, you can take Azithromycin and paracetamol together for mild symptoms of COVID-19. Azithromycin is an antibiotic that can help with any bacterial infections that may be present, while paracetamol can help reduce fever and relieve pain. The usual dosage for Azithromycin is 500mg once daily for 3 days, and for paracetamol, the usual dosage is 500mg to 1000mg every 4 to 6 hours as needed. Make sure to follow the recommended dosages and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any concerns.

Can I safely continue taking Vizylac Rich twice a day, one in the morning and one at night, for the rest of my life? I've been using this for a month now and I feel stronger, but I'm worried about any long-term effects.

You may feel strong, as it eliminates diarrhoea with the help of the good bacteria .. Until otherwise, prescribed by a doctor., kindly dont consume any medication on ur own, for life long..

I'm a bit confused about how to take the medication my doctor prescribed because he was too busy to explain, and the chemist's advice was different. They said to take Defcort 6 mg and Veloz Torrent before food once daily, but the chemist mentioned taking them twice daily after food or with food. Also, what are the side effects of Defcort 6 mg? Can you help me out with this?

Take **Torkast FX** once daily at night after food. Take **Defcort 6 mg** and **Veloz** before food, once daily in the morning. **Defcort 6 mg** may cause side effects like increased appetite, mood changes, or stomach upset; follow the dosage strictly as prescribed for the best results.

I'm feeling pretty worried because I've been experiencing weakness, a mild fever, pain just below my ribs, loss of appetite, and dizziness. When I went to the doctor, they said I have typhoid and that the pain below my ribs is due to swelling in my spleen. They did a Widal test and a blood test. Lately, I've also started having pain in my left shoulder. I'm not sure if the medicine the doctor prescribed is meant to treat both the typhoid and the spleen issue. Should I consider consulting another doctor about this? The prescription says I should take Tab Pyroflox, Olgerd D, Dolo 650, and SunUp S.
