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 been dealing with a really bad cold and cough lately, and my doctor told me to get a Haemogram blood test done. The results show a WBC count of 13100, which seems higher than normal. Could you help me understand what this might mean and what steps I should take next? I'm a bit worried.

I'm wondering if I should start taking Tayo 60K again. I took it back in July and August 2017, one tablet a week. Lately, I've been feeling really weak and tired and find myself getting sleepy during the day. Do you think it's okay for me to take Tayo 60K again now?

It's not recommended to take Tayo 60K (Vitamin D3 supplement) again without consulting a doctor, as excessive Vitamin D intake can lead to toxicity, causing symptoms like weakness, fatigue, and drowsiness, which you're already experiencing; get your Vitamin D levels checked
