I've been feeling really off latelysuper tired and kind of dragging through the day, which isn't like me at all. I'm a 20-year-old female, and someone suggested I try taking vitamin supplements. I heard about Supradyn tablets, but I'm not sure how often I should actually be taking them each day. Could you help me out with some advice on the correct dosage?

- Low digestive enzymes: Insufficient enzymes to break down food properly.
Adjusting Unienzyme Dosage
- Consult your doctor: Before increasing the dosage, consult your doctor to rule out any underlying conditions.
- Try taking Unienzyme at 3 pm: If your doctor agrees, take one Unienzyme tablet at 3 pm, in addition to your regular twice-daily dosage.
Additional Tips
- Eat smaller, frequent meals: Divide your meals into 4-5 smaller portions to ease digestion.
- Avoid heavy meals: Steer clear of rich, fatty, or spicy foods that can slow digestion.

I took three pills of Curam which has 875mg of amoxicillin, hoping it would help with my cold. But then I realized maybe I shouldn't have taken them, and now I'm dealing with some bad headaches. Should I keep taking the antibiotic or stop completely?
It is not recommended to continue taking the antibiotic without proper medical advice, especially if you are experiencing headaches. I would advise you to stop taking the antibiotic and consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance on the appropriate treatment for your cold and headaches.

I'm really worried because my WBC count came back as 13,000 and my GP mentioned it could mean there's an infection in my blood. Do I need to get tested again? I'm scared it might be something serious like sepsis. Could you help me understand what this might mean?
An elevated WBC count can indicate an infection. _Interpretation of WBC Count_ 1. _Mild elevation_: 10,000-15,000 cellsL (your count is 13,000) 2. _Moderate elevation_: 15,000-25,000 cellsL 3. _Severe elevation_: >25,000 cellsL _Possible Causes_ 1. _Bacterial infections_: Pneumonia, urinary tract infections, or skin infections 2. _Viral infections_: Flu, common cold, or viral gastroenteritis 3. _Fungal infections_: Candidiasis or aspergillosis 4. _Other causes_: Inflammatory conditions, allergic reactions, or stress _Next Steps_ 1. _Consult your GP_: Discuss your concerns and the elevated WBC count. 2. _Additional tests_: Your GP may order further tests, such as: - Blood cultures to identify the causative agent - Imaging studies (e.g., chest X-ray or ultrasound) to locate the source of infection - Other blood tests to assess inflammation or organ function 3. _Antibiotics or antifungals_: If an infection is confirmed, your GP may prescribe antibiotics or antifungals to treat the underlying cause. _Sepsis Risk_ While an elevated WBC count can indicate an infection, sepsis is a life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention. If you experience any of the following symptoms, seek emergency care: 1. _Severe difficulty breathing_ 2. _Chest pain or pressure_ 3. _Severe abdominal pain_ 4. _Confusion or disorientation_ 5. _Severe headache or stiff neck
