I'm really in a tough spot and need some advice. I've been given a prescription for Closer DS 200mg and Safecet 5mg, and I'm a bit lost on when to take them. Is it better to have these before or after meals? I'm currently traveling and can't reach my doctor.

I've been dealing with a fever and headache for the last two weeks and was thinking of taking Wymox. Is it okay to take it three times a day? I'm a bit worried about whether it's safe or if there are any side effects I should watch out for.

Is there any chance I need to get another antirabies shot if a street dog just brushed against me? I'm a bit worried because I had the injection about 2 years ago. How long do these shots last anyway?

If you've already received a rabies injection 2 years ago, you typically only need 2 doses of the vaccine after a new exposure. This is because the immunity from the previous vaccination usually lasts for a long time, often 2-5 years or more, depending on the individual and the type of vaccine used
