View allI just realized I ate some ber fruit that had maggots inside. I'm feeling pretty worried. Can you tell me what I should do about this?
When it comes to treating throat infections like Dry Cough, both Clavem 625 mg and Gudcef 200 are effective antibiotics. However, they have some differences. *Clavem 625 mg* contains Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid, which work together to combat bacterial infections . It's often prescribed for respiratory tract infections, including throat infections. *Gudcef 200*, on the other hand, contains Cefpodoxime and Clavulanic acid. This combination is also effective against bacterial infections, including those that cause throat infections . In terms of effectiveness, both medications have similar action mechanisms and are used to treat similar infections. However, your doctor will decide which one to prescribe based on the underlying disease and other parameters . So, it's not necessarily about which one is more effective, but rather which one your doctor thinks is best suited for your specific condition. Always consult your doctor for personalized advice!

I'm having a really tough time with constipation and I'm not sure what syrup might help. Also, Im a bit lost about what types of foods I should be eating to help with this. Can you guide me on what to do?
For constipation, you can take syrup Duphalac 15ml once daily. Additionally, you should increase your intake of fiber-rich foods such as fruits (apples, pears, berries), vegetables (broccoli, carrots, spinach), whole grains (oats, brown rice), and legumes (beans, lentils). It is also important to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Regular physical activity can also help alleviate constipation.
