My dad's been dealing with a fever and a bad cold for the last couple of days. He's been taking Dolo 650 and just started on Taxim O 200 mg this morning. His fever is back again, can I give him Dolo now? Is it alright to take it along with Taxim?

Yes, you can give your dad Dolo 650 for his fever while he is taking Taxim O 200 mg antibiotics. Dolo 650 contains paracetamol which is safe to take with most antibiotics, including Taxim O. The usual dosage for Dolo 650 is 1 tablet every 4-6 hours as needed for fever. Just make sure not to exceed the maximum daily dose of paracetamol.

I've just gotten over the flu, but now I'm dealing with a really sore throat and these swollen lymph nodes on each side of the back of my neck. I've also been sweating a lot at night and my scalp itches. Should I be worried about any of this? What could be causing these symptoms?

I've got this little situation where my puppy, who's just a stray and about one and a half months old, accidentally nipped my thumb while I was feeding him. It wasn't a deep bite, just caught me for a split second, but it did break the skin a bit and I noticed a tiny bit of blood. It's been about 23 hours now, and there's no pain or bleeding anymore. I washed the area really well and put some antibacterial cream on it right away. Should I be worried about getting an injection for this, or am I good? Just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing here.

I've got a fever, headache, cold, and a throat infection, plus there's a mouth ulcer on the inside of my right cheek. I've got zedochef 200, parasafe 650, and vizylac capsule with me. I'm wondering if it's okay to take vizylac with the zedochef antibiotic?
