Question

I'm really worried about my mom who's been dealing with lymph nodes issues for two years now. We've done a bunch of tests like the histopathology and TB PCR, and luckily, they all came back negative for TB. There's no fluid in the lymph nodes, and she hasn't shown any symptoms like fever, weight loss, or tiredness. So, her doctor concluded it's not TB and put her on Clavam 650, Diclomol, and Montex LC for five days. I totally forgot to ask the doctor about how many Clavam 650 tablets she should be taking each day. Should it be one tablet or two? Could you please help me figure this out?
