I'm trying to find out what's the right dose of Zentel deworming tablets for adults and how often I should be taking them. Also, are there any side effects I should be aware of? This whole deworming thing makes me a bit anxious. Could you please guide me?

The ideal dose of Zentel (brand name for albendazole) deworming tablets for adults is 400mg as a single dose. It is usually taken once, and may be repeated after 2 weeks if necessary. Some possible side effects of albendazole include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, dizziness, and temporary hair loss.

View allI've just recovered from Typhoid a few days ago, but now I'm feeling really dizzy, faint, and weak. Eating has become hard because nothing tastes right to me. I'm wondering what kind of food I should be eating to help with this, and if there's anything else I can do to feel better?

I was supposed to take one azithromycin tablet of 500 mg a day for three days, but today I ended up taking two instead, with an 8-hour gap in between. Should I be worried about this or is it not a big deal?
It is important not to panic. Just continue with the remaining dose as prescribed. So, for the next 2 days, take 1 tablet of azithromycin (500 mg) each day as originally instructed. This deviation from the prescribed dosing schedule is unlikely to cause any significant harm. Just ensure you follow the correct dosage for the remaining days.
