I'm dealing with a really annoying dry cough and a blocked nose that's making it impossible to sleep at night. I went to see a doctor, and they gave me some medicines like Doxin to take twice a day, along with some other tablets, but it feels like things are only getting worse. I'm not sure if the meds are supposed to work this way or if I should be worried. Could something else be going on?

Question

I'm dealing with a throat infection and my doctor suggested I take Zedocef 200. After a couple of days, I'm now experiencing a pretty bad headache that just won't go away. I tried taking Disprine today but it didn't really help. The headache seems to be focused right at the top center of my head. Could you recommend something that might help?

Question

Can I switch from taking Dolo to Combiflam for a fever? Will Combiflam be effective in reducing it? Is it possibly more effective than Dolo? I'm a bit confused about which one to use.

Question

Is it really necessary to get some sleep before a blood test, or is it okay if I haven't slept much the night before? Also, I'm wondering if being on my period can change my blood test results. Can that happen?
