I've been bitten by a rat, and I bled for a moment. The doctor gave me an anti-tetanus and a Rabipur injection. He also mentioned I need to take two more Rabipur injections with a 2-day gap in between. I'm wondering, is it really necessary to get those additional shots?

Question

I've been dealing with a cold and fever lately, so I took Nobel Plus and Rabekind DSR for the gas. After having some food, I took Clamcheck 625, but now I'm feeling really weak and my leg fingers are starting to go sideways. Could this be a side effect of the medication, or is something else going on? What should I do?

I've got a fever, headache, cold, and a throat infection, plus there's a mouth ulcer on the inside of my right cheek. I've got zedochef 200, parasafe 650, and vizylac capsule with me. I'm wondering if it's okay to take vizylac with the zedochef antibiotic?
