I'm wondering about how long the protection lasts from tetanus toxoid shots. I never got the tetanus vaccination as a kid, but I did get 24 tetanus toxoid shots over two years, in 2016 and 2017. Is that level of vaccination enough to keep me protected, or should I consider getting another shot? Whats the typical duration of protection in cases like mine?

Meftal Spas tablets contain a combination of mefenamic acid (pain reliever) and dicyclomine (antispasmodic).
For stone pain (likely kidney stones), Meftal Spas might help alleviate:
- Pain
- Spasms
However, consult your doctor or a urologist before taking Meftal Spas for stone pain, as:
- Correct diagnosis is essential
- Stone size, location, and type may require specific treatment
- Other medications or treatments might be more effective
Follow your doctor's advice and take the medication as directed.

View allI've been hearing a lot about using HCQ 200 MG as a way to boost immunity against Covid. I'm wondering if it's safe to take it twice a week for that purpose. Could this really help, and are there any risks I should be aware of? I'm curious because I've seen mixed opinions online and want to make sure it's a good idea before considering it.
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is not recommended for use as a preventive measure against Covid-19. It is important to follow guidelines from health authorities and consult with a healthcare professional for the most appropriate preventive measures.

I came down with typhoid on April 1st, and although that's over now, I'm dealing with a mild fever and feeling really weak in my legs. Plus, I just can't seem to get any sleep at night. What could be causing this? Any idea how I can start feeling better?

I'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?
