I'm a bit confused about how to take the medication my doctor prescribed because he was too busy to explain, and the chemist's advice was different. They said to take Defcort 6 mg and Veloz Torrent before food once daily, but the chemist mentioned taking them twice daily after food or with food. Also, what are the side effects of Defcort 6 mg? Can you help me out with this?

Take Torkast FX once daily at night after food. Take Defcort 6 mg and Veloz before food, once daily in the morning. Defcort 6 mg may cause side effects like increased appetite, mood changes, or stomach upset; follow the dosage strictly as prescribed for the best results.

View allI'm looking at my blood report and I'm seeing a few things out of range, like my total leucocytes are at 3.83 which seems low, and my neutrophils are 34.9 and there's something going on with my lymphocytes at 56.7. Also, my basophils and monocytes' absolute counts are not within the normal range. I've also noticed that the mean corpuscular hemoglobin and the MCHC are a bit off. I had a fever not too long ago and still have mucus in my throat. I'm starting to worry because I read that these symptoms could be related to typhoid. Do you think it's possible that I have typhoid, or is there something else going on?

I've been having a fever for the last couple of days. I've been taking medicine, but at night, when the fever spikes, I take Meftal Forte, and then I start sweating a lot, and the fever comes down. Today's my second day, and I'm feeling better than yesterday. Should I consider getting a dengue test, or is it just a viral fever?
no need for dengue test

I've been experiencing a high heart rate, around 105 to 120 beats per minute, for the last 10 days. I've been taking omnacortil 20mg, montek LC, and using a Budecort 200 inhaler. I used Omnacortil for nearly a month. Could these medications be causing my heart rate to be elevated? I've attached my echo report. What do you think?
Yes, u can stop omnacortil 20 mg and continue tab montek LC and budecort 200 inhaler SOS for breathing difficulty.
