I'm really concerned because during a recent polio vaccination drive, my son was accidentally given 67 drops instead of the usual 2 drops of the oral polio vaccine. Hes already had multiple oral doses and the IPV. Could this cause any issues now or in the future? What should I look out for in terms of symptoms of an overdose?

I'm really worried about my 16-year-old son who has a vitamin deficiency. He's been taking Supradyn tablets for a while now, but he's supposed to continue them for a few more months. We're not in the best financial situation, so I was wondering if Neurobion Forte could be a cheaper alternative. Would it provide the same benefits for his deficiency?
Yes, Neurobion forte can be a suitable alternative for vitamin deficiency. It contains essential B vitamins such as B1, B6, and B12 which can help in improving overall health and energy levels. The recommended dosage for Neurobion forte is one tablet per day. It can be a cost-effective option for your family considering your background.

I'm really worried about my 4-year-old. They've had a cold and cough for three days now and are even throwing up. We've already given them an antibiotic and some cough syrup, but I'm not sure if that's enough or if we're doing the right thing. Could it be something more serious or should we try something else?
Lox 2% jelly, containing lidocaine, can provide temporary numbing relief for painful intercourse due to lack of lubrication. However, it's essential to use it with caution: *Safety Precautions* 1. *Consult your doctor*: Before using Lox 2% jelly, consult your doctor, especially if you have any underlying medical conditions or allergies. 2. *Use as directed*: Follow the instructions carefully, and apply the jelly only to the affected area. 3. *Avoid excessive use*: Don't use more than the recommended amount, as this can lead to prolonged numbness or other adverse effects. *Alternative Solutions* 1. *Water-based lubricants*: Consider using water-based lubricants, like K-Y Jelly or Astroglide, which can help reduce friction and discomfort during intercourse. 2. *Hormonal treatments*: If you're experiencing vaginal dryness due to hormonal changes, your doctor may recommend hormonal treatments, such as estrogen creams or supplements. *Addressing Underlying Issues* 1. *Gynecological check-up*: Schedule a check-up with your gynecologist to rule out any underlying conditions that may be contributing to your discomfort. 2. *Open communication*: Discuss your concerns with your partner, and explore ways to make intercourse more comfortable and enjoyable for you.
