Question 1

I've been dealing with a cold for the last three days and started feeling feverish the day before yesterday. I began taking Dolo 650, which helped a bit, but the feverish feeling returned in the evening. So, I also added Levo Citrizen and took both medications in the morning and at night. Yesterday, I ended up with a bad headache and took the same meds again last night. This morning, I feel a bit better, but I still have the cold, a light cough, and some feverish feelings. My temperature has been between 94 to 98F for the past three days. What do you suggest I do, and can you recommend any specific medications?

Accepted Answer

You can take Montek-LC for symptomatic relief, and Dolo 650mg for  fever. You may be experiencing a viral infection. Drink plenty of fluids and take rest.

Question 2

I'm a little puzzled about how to take Limcee, the vitamin C chewable my dermatologist suggested. Should I be chewing it or is it better if I suck on it? What's the best way to actually get the most benefit from it?

Accepted Answer

For Limcee, a vitamin C chewable tablet, chewing it is recommended over sucking, as chewing helps to break down the tablet and release the vitamin C, allowing for better absorption in the digestive system, whereas sucking may lead to swallowing the tablet whole, potentially reducing its effectiveness.

Question 3

Is it safe for me to start taking RevitalH without consulting a doctor first? I read that it's a mix of vitamins and minerals, but I'm worried about any potential side effects or interactions with other medications I might be on. What would you recommend?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Revital-H can be used as a general health supplement without a doctor's prescription. It contains a mix of essential vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin A, B complex, C, D, E, and minerals like zinc, iron, and calcium. The usual recommended dosage for adults is one tablet daily after meals.

Question 4

My arm's been hurting since I got blood drawn three times for some tests on January 25th. There's a bit of redness on my skin too. It seemed to be getting better, but I played squash today, and now the pain's back. Can you suggest what I should do?

Accepted Answer

It seems like your arm might be experiencing irritation or inflammation from the multiple blood draws. I recommend applying a cold compress to reduce swelling and taking over-the-counter pain relief, such as ibuprofen, to alleviate discomfort. If the redness or pain worsens, or if you notice swelling, it would be best to consult your doctor for further evaluation.
