I'm really worried and need some advice. I've been dealing with strep throat for about a week and a half, and my right tonsil is super swollen. I've also been getting pain in my ear. Last Thursday, they said I had a sinus infection, but they didn't check my throat for strep back then. I just started taking amoxicillin today, two doses so far, but after the first one, I took a nap and woke up with this chest pain on the upper right side when I breathe. Is this normal or something I should be concerned about?

View allI've been dealing with a high fever since yesterday, alongside a really bad headache, cold, cough, and weakness. I went to the pharmacy and picked up Cepodem 200, AcenextP, and MontewokLC. After taking them, I felt super cold and started shaking, but then I got warm and sweaty after sleeping, which made me feel better. It's been about 8 hours since I took them this morning, and now it seems like my fever might be coming back. Should I keep taking what I bought?

I'm a bit confused because my doctor prescribed me Nurokind 1500 mg tablets, but the pharmacy gave me Nurokind OD tablets instead. Are these the same thing? And how exactly should I be taking these Nurokind OD tablets? Should I just swallow them?
Nurokind 1500 mg and Nurokind OD are similar, containing Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12), but with different formulations; Nurokind OD is designed for once-daily dosing, typically with a higher strength (e.g., 2500-3000 mcg), and should be swallowed whole with water, once daily, at the same time.
