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 started taking Lariago DS and took 2 tablets at 2 PM. Then, around 4:30 PM, I suddenly developed a fever hitting 102. So I took some paracetamol. Can you tell me if it's okay to mix paracetamol with Lariago DS? Really looking forward to your advice.

Yes you can take no problem.

I'm having a sore throat and a dry cough pretty much all the time, especially when I'm outside and come into contact with dust or after eating hot foods. Now, on top of that, I'm dealing with daily constipation and back pain. I'm really not sure what's going on and it's starting to bother me. Any idea what's causing this or how I can get some relief?

Take amoxclav 625mg tablets for 5 days and syrup ascoril trice a day for 5 days
