I've been dealing with a high fever for three days, and it kept staying over 101 and even hit 103.5 at one point before dropping to 99.5 on the same day. I checked in with a doctor and was told to take Dolo 650 and Meftal Forte, which I did. But now, three days later, I'm still feeling super weak, sleeping around 18 hours a day. Some old muscle pains in my left hand have started up again too, which might be from being so weak. I've been taking Neromet, a multi-vitamin, and vitamin C tablets, but they're not helping much. Today I've noticed redness all over my body, which I think could be an allergic reaction to some medication since this has never happened before. What could be going on here?

Hi Sunil, it seems like your body is still recovering from the fever, which is causing the prolonged weakness and muscle pain. The redness could be an allergic reaction to the medication, and it's important to consult your doctor to rule out any severe reactions. Rest, hydration, and monitoring your symptoms closely are key; if the redness worsens or new symptoms appear, seek immediate medical attention.

I've been having some health issues lately. A few days ago, I started coughing at night, and by next morning, my body was hurting, and I had a fever. I've been taking CLAVAM 625 and Calpol, and luckily, the fever's gone down. But now I've got this gas problem, my stomach feels upset, and sometimes I feel like I might puke. Oh, and by the way, Ive already taken 5 tablets of Clavam. Do I really need to take 10 in total?

for gas, stomach upset, and vomiting tendency: Take the antibiotic with food, consider probiotics (if recommended), and stay hydrated. Complete the full 10-day course of Clavam unless advised otherwise by your doctor, to ensure the infection is fully treated and to avoid the risk of resistance. If symptoms persist or worsen, it's essential to consult your doctor for further evaluation.

I've been feeling a bit under the weather with a cold and a slight fever. Is it okay to take Calpol 650 for this? Is it effective for these symptoms? Just want to make sure it's the right choice.

Calpol 650, which contains paracetamol (acetaminophen), is commonly used to relieve mild to moderate pain and reduce fever. It can be taken for cold and slight fever, as it helps alleviate discomfort and reduce fever. However, it's important to follow the recommended dosage and consult a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

I've been recovering from COVID-19 for about 20 days now, and I've noticed some lingering symptoms like a low-grade fever for the past couple of days, body aches, and a stuffy nose. I'm concerned about these minor issues and I'm wondering what kind of medication or steps I should take to feel better. Any advice?
