I've been taking Cherifer PGM food supplement for a month now, and I'm wondering what time of day is best to take it. Also, I had to stop for a week because I was on another medication and resumed two weeks later. Is that okay?

You can take Cherifer PGM food supplement at any time of the day, but it is generally recommended to take it after a meal to maximize absorption. As for your situation, it is okay that you stopped taking it for a week and resumed after two weeks. Just continue taking it as directed on the packaging for the best results.

I'm really worried about my 2-year-old son. He had surgery on his head a few weeks ago, and the doctor prescribed him 5ml of Advent twice a day. Now it's been about three weeks post-surgery, and today he's having really bad diarrhea and headaches. I've tried giving him oranges to help, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Can you give me some advice on what I should do next?

Stop advent, diarrhoea is its side effect.

I'm really worried about my 5-year-old son. He's been dealing with a chronic cough for the last 3 weeks and usually, it gets better after a couple of weeks with nebulization. Weve been using Duolin for nebulization since he has mild asthma and also using Budecort and Salbair puffs. But this time, there's no major improvement, and his X-ray came back normal. I'm wondering why this could be happening and what else we might be able to do?

Continue duolin inhaler sos for asthma..Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutoml 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.
