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'm planning to take albendazole tablets and I'm wondering if there's anything specific I should know about how to take them. Is it true that I need to wait two weeks between doses, and should I really be taking them with warm sweet milk before bed? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

Tablet alben dazzle is for worm infestation. If you have evidence of infection confirmed then take one tablet now and repeat after two weeks. If you are staying with family or sharing space or things with others, get everyone with weight >20 kg to take the stat dose. Best taken 2hours after food at night. What ever is your choice, milk water or juice.

I'm dealing with this fever that keeps coming and going for the past month, and my head's been hurting a lot too. I even got a corona test done, and it came back negative. What should I do next?

The doctor's concerns warrant further investigation. Consult a pediatrician or a pediatric nephrologist for a comprehensive evaluation to rule out kidney issues. Allergy testing and growth monitoring can also help identify underlying causes. Request diagnostic tests like urinalysis, ultrasound, or blood work to determine the cause of the puffiness under your son's eyes.
