I've been dealing with this viral fever for the last two weeks, and I occasionally get these chills and a headache. Someone mentioned Gudcef cv 200 for this. Do you think it's okay for me to take it? I'm just a bit unsure about its usage for viral fever.

Gudcef CV 200 is an antibiotic containing cefpodoxime and clavulanic acid, effective against bacterial infections, not viral fever; taking antibiotics for viral fever won't help and may lead to antibiotic resistance; for viral fever, focus on symptom management with rest, hydration, antipyretics like paracetamol, and antihistamines for cold and headache;

View allI'm wondering if it's okay for an average person like me to take Zincovit and Vitamin C every day? If so, what would be the right amount to take? And if it's not meant for daily use, how long should I actually take these supplements, and what's the dosage during that period?
A normal person can take Zincovit and Vitamin C supplements daily, but it's essential to follow the recommended dosages: Zincovit (zinc, vitamin C, and other minerals) 1-2 tabletscapsules per day, and Vitamin C 60-90 mg per day,

I've tried a bunch of things but nothing's working. I'm also feeling pretty weak. What could be causing the bitter taste and how can I get rid of it?

I'm really worried about my brother. He got diagnosed with Typhoid because his fever just wouldn't go down, and it turns out his Typhoid level is pretty high at 162. He's been on medication since Thursday, and today is Monday, but the fever hasn't completely disappeared yet. During the day, the temperature seems normal, but in the evening or afternoon, it shoots up to 99. I'm trying to figure out how many more days it's going to take for this fever to totally go away. Is this normal? I read somewhere that Typhoid fever can take about 15 days to subside entirely is that true? Today marks the 5th day he's on the medication for Typhoid. He's taking Enteromycetin 250 capsules three times a day and omnacortil 5, also three times daily. Does this medication sound right, or could it be that it's not strong enough, and that's why it's taking longer? Could you please help out and let me know what you think?
First of all level of typhoid means what ? is it s.widal ? medicines are not proper
