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've been dealing with some lingering symptoms after testing negative for COVID. It's been 26 days since I initially tested positive, but I'm still experiencing a mild fever, mild cough, and body aches. I noticed my CRP levels are at 4.4, which is double what they were before I had COVID. I'm just wondering, what should I do about this?

I'm feeling a bit feverish on and off for the last three days, even though when I check my temperature, it's normal, around 96 to 98. I've also been taking antioxidants and multivitamins for a month now. Could there be a connection, or should I be worried about something else going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing intermittent fever episodes despite having a normal body temperature reading. This could be due to various reasons such as underlying infections or inflammatory conditions. Since you have been taking antioxidants and multivitamins for a month without improvement, I recommend you consult a doctor for further evaluation and possible testing

I've been experiencing a mild fever every evening for the past week, usually staying under 100, mostly around 99. But then it seems to return to normal by the next morning. I've also had occasional headaches, though my stomach feels okay. I had a CBC and urine ESR done, and everything came back fine. What could possibly be causing this?
Sounds like you may be experiencing a low-grade fever in the evenings, along with occasional headaches. Since your CBC, urine, and ESR tests are normal, it is less likely to be due to an infection. One possible reason for your symptoms could be a viral infection. I recommend taking Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every evening when you have a fever. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
