I'm wondering why we should drink Becosules syrup. Is it actually good for our health? Are there any specific benefits of taking it? Can you give me some insight into this, please?

Missing a dose by 1-2 days is generally not a significant concern. You can take the 4th dose on the 17th. However, it's essential to consult with your doctor or the clinic where you received the previous shots to confirm and ensure you're protected against rabies.

I've been dealing with a fever and cold for about five days, and now I'm feeling really nauseous with a bad backache and this constant weakness for the past three days. It's like I can't sit, rest, or even walk without feeling awful. Eating's been impossible, too. I also started my periods three days ago. Is this normal after having a fever, or should I be worried about something else going on?
