I'm genuinely concerned about whether I should be taking Zenflox 200 as my doctor recommended. I had a fever and was feeling extremely cold due to the weather last night, but I'm feeling a bit better today. I noticed my urine is darker yellow though. The doctor said I have low BP and advised me to take ORS water along with Calpol for the fever. I looked up Zenflox 200 online and saw some potential side effects, which worries me. I don't have any stomach pain, mucus, cold, or coughjust the fever. What do you think?

Its good that your doctor assessed your condition. Zenflox-200 (Ofloxacin) is typically prescribed for bacterial infections, so if you dont have symptoms suggesting an infection (like stomach issues or mucus), you might want to discuss with your doctor whether its necessary. Meanwhile, stay hydrated with ORS and continue Calpol for fever.

I'm trying to get a fitness certificate for my Learning License, but I'm a bit lost on where to start. Can any MBBS doctor provide this certificate? I'm not sure who to contact or where to go. Any advice would be really helpful!
You can visit a nearby clinic or hospital and request the doctor to conduct a medical examination to issue the fitness certificate. The doctor will assess your overall health and determine if you are fit to drive.
