I have a fever and I'm suspecting that it's a viral fever, so plz suggest some antibiotics. ## I got fever and body pains since one day ## Antibiotics are not effective against viruses, which is why they cannot be used to treat a cold or flu. Antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections. Learn more virus details here. The best thing you can do for a virus, in most cases, is to let it run its course. However, if it gets problematic, then you should consult your doctor. Are there any other questions or comments? ## My daughter 9yrs suffering from fever and headache from 2 days I gave her paracetamol 250 mg syrup thrice a day.She relieved but headache is there again what should o do any medicine plz.

It's very sore. I juse broke out and have blisters. I'm not taking anything yet but do have some lidocaine ointment ## Hello, Nik! How are you doing? I am very sorry about the cold sores, I know that they can be very painful, as well as embarrassing. There are several products available over the counter that can help alleviate the discomfort, including Carmex and Blistex. I'd not suggest using the Lidocaine, unless it is specifically approved to be used on the facial/oral area. Abreva is another over the counter product that can sometimes help shorten the duration of a cold sore. The NIH and FDA list cold compresses, or ice as possibly helping to relieve the discomfort, they also suggest using Orajel, Anbesol, Tylenol or Advil to help with the pain. Of course, please follow ...

Hi this is padma..i get married 4 months before..i have dought for this okacet tablets..can i used this tablet for cold,, fever,bodypains... any side effects whenn am gettign pregnent time..i was some fear about this tablets.. ## Well from what I know okacet contains cetrizine which is an anti histamine. Hence it is meant to be taken to temporarily drive away symptoms of allergies like a runny nose, itching and watering of the eyes. Don't think it helps any with fever and body pains. Take a paracetamol to deal with that. Side effect is mainly drowsiness but might cause a heavy head and headache. Won't affect ur fertility or chances of pregnancy. Not to worry. Best to consult ur physician though! ## I think i m pregnant n suffering from cold allergy so can i take Okacet cold. ## ...

Tried it all with my 35 year drug habit.Suffered a lot only to benefit drug companies greed.Im on my fourth day of recovery using cold turkey method and i feel more freedom now than i did after months of champix,nasel inhalers,gum and e cigs. There's two reasons for this.. 1 Because i no longer have nicotine in my body 2 Because i re educated myself from non profit making sources that told me the truth about nicotine. Knowledge is the key! Don't take nrt. The only conceivable reason to give an addict the substance he is addicted to would be to keep him hooked whether it be gum patches e ciggie or any type of nicotine. Would you give an alcoholic alcohol to help him recover?? Addicts make for very reliable consumers. Its almost like drug dealers competing for a junkies trade. So lon

Can febrex be used for Sore Throat. If not which is the best medicine for Sore throat ## this site is not medical professionals, so we can't possibly suggest what you should use, proper treatment really depends on what is causing the sore throat, which could be anything from allergies to an infection. Have you seen a doctor? Febrex contains Chlorpheniramine, Phenyephrine and Acetaminophen, so it can help with some pain and cold symptoms, but if something else is causing your sore throat, it won't.

I am having a mild fever with a cough and cold and running nose since 4 days. I've taken paracetamol & Leon but my fever is still not going away and neither is the cold. ## A cold is caused by a virus, so an antibiotic will not help with that. An antibiotic will only help with a bacterial infection. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My husband is 57yrs old and he's been coughing productively for a month with wheezing, difficulty breathing, taking cough syrup and not getting better. What is the best antibiotic of choice? He is a smoker. ## I am having a mild fever with a cough and cold and running nose since 4 days. I've taken paracetamo...

use, useage, frequency ## Have a cold and need relief. ## Hi Lenbeil, Based on my research, Benical is a European cold medicine and decongestant made by Bayer. The main ingredients are Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Chlorpheniramine, and/or Pseudoephedrine. I had to use google translate because most of the information regarding this medication is in Turkish- From what I can gather, there are 20 (500 mg) pills in one Benical blister pack. The maximum dosage for adults and teens is 1 tablet 3 times a day. Drink 1 glass of water with the medication- DO NOT consume alcohol. To add: since this medication requires a prescription it would be best to speak with your doctor about the correct dosage. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Acetaminophen + Chlorpheniramine + Dextromet...

I am taking antenolo for blood pressure. Lately my blood pressure has been below 100. It was at 85. I have also been cold. I stop taking the antenolo and blood pressure went up to 132/75 and my pulse was 98. Should I stop taking the antenolo. I believe I am taking it to lower my blood pressure. Thanks ## Those can be normal side effects of this medication, according to the FDA, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, and increased urination. Rather than stopping it, however, it would be best to speak to your doctor about perhaps adjusting your dosage, or trying a different medication. Is this the only medication you are taking?

I have been on norco 10-325 for 5 years and take 2 to 5 per day. What would be a good schedule to us to taper off and quit using it. I have heard that cold turkey may not be the best way to do it. ## Hello, Steve! How are you? Cold turkey could result in your experiencing withdrawal symptoms, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, fever, chills, depression, anxiety and rebound pain, so yes, a slow taper is best. There's no specific taper schedule that always works for everyone, however, in most cases, the preferred method is to have someone starting spacing their doses farther apart, while gradually taking less and less, usually a change is made every week or two. Have you consulted your doctor? They should be able to help you set up an appropriate an...

I am 24 weeks running pregnancy due to common cold itook nimsulide tablet once..will its going to be effect my baby I am too much worry now please help ## Hello, Liani! How are you? During pregnancy, it is always best to never take any medication, without first checking with your doctor. This one should not be taken during pregnancy, according to the U.S. FDA as it may cause some problems. However, if you only took it once, things will most likely be fine, but you should make sure to inform your doctor, just in case. Have you taken any other medications? ## Hi, I hope you are safe. Was there any problem to the baby when you took the Nimesulide in pregnancy? Plz help me by replying. I m in similar situation.

What kind of cold medicine is okay to take with the blood pressure medicine losartan? ## @Sunshine, For liability reasons, I think it's generally best to discuss this with your prescribing doctor or pharmacist. However you can always look up potential drug interactions via the University of Maryland Medical Center at: umm.edu/health/medical/drug-interaction-tool That webpage allows you to plug in specific drug names for an evaluation of their combined pharmacology and what/if any risk factors (or side effects) may be expected in certain scenarios. Sorry I couldn't give you more specific details, but if you have a medication in mind you can simply plug it into that drug interaction tool... Nevertheless, I'd still encourage you to double check with your medical provider(s) jus...

I am on suboxone and I am sick. Can I take cold multi-symptom with acetaminophen / phenylephrine HCI / Dextromethorphan HBr? Just want to know if it is safe to take together? Can not find anything on this on the internet. ## Hello, Rayrad! How are you? I didn't find any interactions listed between them in the databases, but it's always best to double check this information to be sure. The cold remedy, as listed by the FDA, may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and headache. Suboxone is listed as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I am on 12 mg of suboxone a day. I got a flu shot last week a...

This gel is heaven sent for cold sores/herpes Simplex or veneral herpes. It give the same wonderful relief to both herpes. Applied to red ant bites it stops the festering . Applied to mosquitos bits it takes the sting out and reduces the size of the welts. Like others I have not been able to purchase at local drug stores. Where can I order on line in quantities of 10 or more. This is a product you want to share with young families and the older folks. ## I'd recommend being careful about using on an area of the body for which it is not intended. Doing so may lead to some possible serious adverse reactions and/or yeast infections. To treat genital issues, it is best and safest to stick with a product that is specifically formulated to be used in those areas. Learn more herpes details...

Is it ok if I take Nyquil while I'm taking XL3 pills for a cold ## Hello, SallyAnn! How are you? No, it would be best not to double up, because they both contain Acetaminophen and taking too much of it in a day can result in overdose toxicity, which has the potential to be fatal. They both also contain decongestants and cough suppressants, so there is no need for both of them. The FDA lists the typical side effects of these medications as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have run out of my prescription for Atorvastatin and had decided to start eating healthier and excercising. Unfortunately i cant afford to return to my doctor for advice on stipping the atorvastatin. Is it okay to stop Atorvastatin 10 mg cold turkey? ## Hello, Hart16! How are you? What did you decide to do? It would be best to consult your doctor, but stopping such a medication abruptly isn't actually considered dangerous. However, you may experience some withdrawal effects, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and diarrhea.

I've been on 20 mg for 7 months, working awesome but now I feel it's time to get off it. My choice would be to stop it cold turkey. Had anyone else done this yet, and how hard/easy was it? ## That's usually not a good idea after taking it for months, because according to the U.S. FDA, it could cause you to experience withdrawal effects, which may include nausea, diarrhea, headache, rebound depression, pain, and anxiety. A slow taper would be the best choice. Why do you want to stop it, if it is working so well for you? ## Hi, I just didn't want to be on pills anymore. Update, I did stop taking it CT, I did have the side effects they said, albeit reasonably mild and only a few days. My Dr wanted me back on it but it was up to me. I just started back on it at 10 mg but I...
