Hey, I'm a bit concerned and could use some advice. My wife and I, both 35, went through mild Covid symptoms recently and thankfully, we're negative nowit's been about three weeks. During our treatment, we didn't take Aspirin or any other blood thinners. Should we consider taking any blood thinners now that we're recovering? Any guidance would be really helpful.

Hey, I've been taking Supradyn and Becosule, and I'm wondering if it's okay to use them regularly. Should I take a break after a month or just keep going? What's the longest duration I can safely take these vitamins?

Supradyn and Becosule can be taken regularly if advised by a doctor, as they are generally safe for long-term use to address vitamin deficiencies. However, its best to reassess your need for them every 1-3 months to avoid overuse and ensure theyre still necessary for your health.

I've just tested positive for COVID and I'm isolating at home. Can you let me know what medicines I should take or if there's any specific treatment I should follow? I'm also interested in having a teleconsultation.
