Question 1

I've been dealing with a high fever since yesterday, alongside a really bad headache, cold, cough, and weakness. I went to the pharmacy and picked up Cepodem 200, AcenextP, and MontewokLC. After taking them, I felt super cold and started shaking, but then I got warm and sweaty after sleeping, which made me feel better. It's been about 8 hours since I took them this morning, and now it seems like my fever might be coming back. Should I keep taking what I bought?

I'm wondering if it's normal for someone to catch a cold while they're recovering from jaundice. Does this mean the jaundice is getting better, or could it be something else? Would love to get your thoughts on this.

I've had a runny nose for the last couple of days. Do you have any recommendations for a medicine that can help? I've tried using Otrivin, but it feels a bit too intense for me. Could you recommend a tablet that might work better?

Possible causes:
