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.

View allMy dad's been dealing with a fever and a bad cold for the last couple of days. He's been taking Dolo 650 and just started on Taxim O 200 mg this morning. His fever is back again, can I give him Dolo now? Is it alright to take it along with Taxim?
Yes, you can give your dad Dolo 650 for his fever while he is taking Taxim O 200 mg antibiotics. Dolo 650 contains paracetamol which is safe to take with most antibiotics, including Taxim O. The usual dosage for Dolo 650 is 1 tablet every 4-6 hours as needed for fever. Just make sure not to exceed the maximum daily dose of paracetamol.

I've noticed that the lymph nodes beside my ears, near my neck and lower jaw, have been swollen for about 5 or 6 days now. Along with that, I've been dealing with a cough and a headache. Could you help me understand what's going on?
Swollen lymph nodes near the ears, neck, and jaw, along with symptoms like cough and headache, could indicate a viral or bacterial infection, such as a common cold, flu, or an upper respiratory infection. It's important to monitor your symptoms, and if they persist or worsen, it would be best to consult a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and treatment.
