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.

View allI drank 3 cans of Red Bull hoping to get through my back-to-back exams since it's my final semester, but now I'm regretting it. I had one can in the evening, the next at around 11 PM, and the last one this morning at about 5:30 AM. After that third one, I started feeling really nauseous and ended up vomiting just an hour before my exam. I realized I mostly had them on an empty stomach. Even though I felt somewhat better after puking, it's been a while, and I'm still feeling weak and a bit off. I'm scared and definitely not touching Red Bull again. What should I do now, and what should I avoid to feel better?
Consuming 3 cans of Red Bull in a short period, especially on an empty stomach, can lead to caffeine toxicity, causing nausea, vomiting, and weakness; to recover, drink plenty of water and electrolyte-rich fluids, like coconut water or sports drinks, to replenish lost salts; eat small, frequent meals of bland foods, like crackers or toast; avoid caffeine and energy drinks for a while; and if your weakness persists, or you experience severe symptoms like chest pain, rapid heartbeat, or difficulty breathing, seek medical attention.

Can you tell me if it's safe to take four Tiniba 500 mg tablets all at once, since that adds up to 2000 mg? I'm just a bit worried about such a high dose.
Typical Doses: For infections, Tinidazole is often prescribed in doses like 500 mg twice a day or 1000 mg once a day depending on the condition. Possible Side Effects: Common side effects of Tinidazole can include nausea, metallic taste, dizziness, and headache, which might be more intense with a higher dose. If in doubt, it's always a good idea to clarify with your healthcare provider before taking the medication.
