I'm worried about my friend's health. He's had a fever for two days, and his SGPT level is 69.0 while other test results are normal. The doctor prescribed him Ziprax 100. Do you think he needs to get any additional tests done?

Ziprax 100 might be appropriate for bacterial infections, but if fever persists or worsens, it is important to do further tests to rule out any serious underlying conditions, particularly related to the liver.

I've been taking B complex tablets because my B12 level was low, and I've noticed my urine turning bright yellow afterward. I'm a bit worried and unsure if this is happening because of the supplement or if I should be concerned about something else. Is yellow urine normal after taking B complex, or should I be worried?

I'm a bit worried and wanted to see if I can get your advice. My family doctor told me to take ivermectin even though I don't have COVID, and she suggested taking a second dose three days after the first one. She mentioned that I should do this every month. I'm not sure if it's okay to take ivermectin twice a month like this when I'm not even sick with COVID. Is this safe?

Ivermectin is typically used to treat parasitic infections, and its safety and efficacy for regular, monthly use without COVID-19 or parasitic infections are unclear; potential risks and side effects include gastrointestinal issues, allergic reactions, and interactions with other medications; consult a specialist or pharmacist to discuss the potential benefits and risks and determine if alternative treatments are available for your specific condition.

I've been really worried since I was diagnosed with COVID last month and got treated with remdesivir. When they discharged me, my CRP was 3.5 but then it jumped to 8.1 the next week and 13.4 in the second week. Plus, I developed an allergy around my neck, but that has cleared up now. Can you please advise on how to get my CRP levels down?

Take antibiotics
