I've been feeling pretty off today with a headache and a lot of dizziness. I took a nap and when I woke up, it got worse. I feel really light-headed now, I'm having some trouble breathing, and my heart feels like it's beating really fast. Do you think this could be because of Tylenol? I took it for a fever earlier. What should I do?

View allAccidentally took 1200mg of ibuprofen, is that going to affect me? I weigh around 180lbs. Should I be worried about any side effects?
Taking 1200mg of ibuprofen is above the typical recommended dose (400-600mg), but for your weight, it's not likely to cause serious harm if its a one-time occurrence. However, watch for signs of stomach upset, dizziness, or any unusual symptoms. If you experience anything concerning, contact a healthcare professional right away.

I got a small bite from a street dog last evening. The wound doesn't seem too serious, but I'm a bit worried about rabies. Is it okay to wait a couple of days to get the rabies shots, or should I get them immediately? I'm not sure how urgent it is.

I swallowed a small amount of betadine gargle by accident. Should I be worried or is it nothing to be concerned about?
Accidentally swallowing a small amount of Betadine (povidone-iodine) gargle is unlikely to cause significant harm, but it may cause temporary gastrointestinal upset, such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, due to its high iodine content
