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.

I'm really worried about this situation. She's been having a fever for the last 3 months, and it only goes down when she takes Crocin. Otherwise, it just stays there. She's had a lot of tests done like blood tests, X-Ray, Ultrasound, and even checked her Hemoglobin levels, and everything seems normal. But there are still some symptoms pointing to an internal infection. Can you please help us figure out what's going on?
It sounds like shes been dealing with persistent fever for the past three months, and while her tests have come back normal, there could still be an underlying infection. Its important to consult with a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation, as they might need to look deeper into possible internal causes.

I've been dealing with a cold, fever, and a respiratory cough and the pharmacist suggested I take paracetamol and Novaclav 625, twice daily for two days. However, I've already taken it for three days now. I'm wondering, how many days is it safe or recommended to continue taking Novaclav 625?
Novaclav 625, a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, is typically prescribed for 5-7 days for respiratory infections, so taking it for only 3 days may not be sufficient to fully clear the infection,
