I've just had plastic surgery and am currently taking cefadroxil 500mg twice a day for the next six days as part of my post-op meds. However, I was also on azithromycin 500mg for urethritis and have only taken the first dose. I'm supposed to take the second and third doses. Is it okay to take the cefadroxil while continuing with the azithromycin for urethritis?

Smoking weed (marijuana) during chickenpox is not recommended.
While marijuana may provide temporary pain relief, it can also:
Suppress the immune system, potentially prolonging recovery Increase the risk of respiratory complications, such as pneumonia Interact with other medications, like antivirals or pain relievers
Instead, consider talking to your doctor about alternative pain management options, such as:
Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen Topical creams or ointments for skin relief Prescription antiviral medications to reduce symptom severity

I'm really worried because my mom, who was just diagnosed with kidney stones last Saturday, hasnt had a bowel movement since then and now it's Tuesday night. I understand that the medication shes on can cause constipation, and we tried giving her prunes, other high-fiber foods, and even some magnesium citrate, but nothing seems to work. Is there anything else we can do? What would you suggest to help her with this issue?
Encourage her for consuming high fibre diet and plenty of water,you can try with Laxative suspensions like LOOZ syrup 10 ml at bed time.
