I've had a throat infection and fever since the night of the 18th. I've been taking paracetamol and zifi 200, but as soon as the medication wears off, the fever comes back. Can you suggest what other medicine I should consider taking?

It seems like you may need a stronger antibiotic for your throat infection. I recommend taking Augmentin along with continuing paracetamol for fever. Additionally, you can try Betadine gargles for relief of throat symptoms. Remember to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.

I'm a little worried about cellulitis treatment. My partner has been on Augmentin 625 twice a day and Chymoral forte three times a day for the past three days. Should we be seeing a specific kind of doctor for this, or is a general practitioner okay? Also, do you think this medication regimen sounds right, or should we be doing something differently? Any advice would be super helpful.

I'm feeling pretty worried; I've been dealing with a cough and cold for the past two weeks. I've already taken 10 tablets of Sumo Cold and 6 tablets of Roxid 150 mg, but today the coughing has gotten worse. What should I do next?

It seems like your current medication is not effectively managing your symptoms. I recommend adding an expectorant like Mucolite syrup (10ml twice daily) to help with the increased coughing. Additionally, you can take a cough suppressant like Ascoril syrup (5ml thrice daily) to alleviate the coughing spells. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.
