I'm having a tough time with a persistent cough for several days now. When I consulted the doctor, they prescribed me some medicines: Zinox 200mg, Telekast, and a cough syrup. My issue is that the Zinox 200mg tablet is really expensive. Could you suggest any alternative medicine that's similar to Zinox 200mg? I'm looking for something more affordable.

View allI'm feeling some pain in my upper back and upper abdominal on the left side. It just started all of a sudden yesterday, and I notice it mostly when I'm moving around, picking up things, or even just laying down. I'm a bit worried about what could be causing this. Could it be something serious?
It sounds like you might be experiencing muscle strain or possibly an issue with the organs in that area, such as the spleen or stomach. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to get it checked by a doctor to rule out any underlying conditions. Rest, gentle stretching, and avoiding heavy lifting might help in the meantime.

I've been feeling really sleepy whenever I take Dolo 650. Is it known to make you drowsy? What can I do to help reduce this drowsiness?
Dolo 650 (paracetamol) typically doesn't cause sleepiness, but some people may experience drowsiness as a side effect. To reduce sleepiness, try taking the medication with food and avoid activities that require full attention until you feel alert again. If the drowsiness persists, consider consulting your doctor for alternatives.

My grandmother's been running a fever since this morning. It hit 102 earlier, dropped to 100 after we gave her an antibiotic, but then climbed back up to 102, and now it's at 101. She's also coughing heavily. Im not sure if this could be COVID since we haven't been traveling. Should we be worried and get it checked out, or maybe wait and see for a bit?
