I'm taking szetalo plus 12 every day as prescribed by my doctor, and now they've told me to start azithromycin for a different issue. Is it okay for me to use both these medications at the same time? Just making sure its safe to combine them.

It's generally safe to take Sztalo Plus (a combination of Ambroxol, Guaifenesin, and Terbutaline) and Azithromycin together, as there are no significant interactions between them

I've recently recovered from COVID-19, tested negative 20 days ago, but I'm still dealing with some mild post-COVID symptoms like headaches and a bit of abdominal discomfort. I've been wondering if it'd be okay to have a couple of small bottles of beer to relax during these tough times. Is it safe to have alcohol now, or should I wait a bit longer?

It is generally advisable to avoid alcohol consumption while recovering from COVID-19 and experiencing post-COVID symptoms. Alcohol can weaken your immune system and may interfere with the recovery process. It is best to focus on staying hydrated, getting adequate rest, and eating a healthy diet to support your body's recovery. If you are experiencing headache and abdominal pain, you can take acetaminophen for headache relief and antacids for abdominal pain. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions.

I've been dealing with a cold, fever, and a respiratory cough and the pharmacist suggested I take paracetamol and Novaclav 625, twice daily for two days. However, I've already taken it for three days now. I'm wondering, how many days is it safe or recommended to continue taking Novaclav 625?

Novaclav 625, a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, is typically prescribed for 5-7 days for respiratory infections, so taking it for only 3 days may not be sufficient to fully clear the infection,

I'm currently on Augmentin 650mg and have been taking it twice a day for the past 5 days. I'm almost fully recovered now, but I'm unsure if I should continue the course for 5 days or stretch it to 7 days. What's the best approach here?
