I've just started taking Akurit 4 tablets for mild TB, and I've noticed that my urine has turned orange since this morning. Is this something that usually happens, or should I be really concerned about it? I'm feeling a bit anxious and would love to get some clarity on this.

If the orange-colored urine is your only concern, there is no need to worryit is a common, non-threatening side effect. However, always feel free to consult your doctor if you feel unsure or develop additional symptoms.

View allMy husband has had this really stubborn dry cough for over a year now, and it seems worst in the early morning, especially when he's using the washroom. I'm really curious what's causing this and if there's something specific we should be doing or looking into? It's been going on for so long, and I'm a bit worried.

I'm trying to understand a few things that I'm experiencing right now. My recent chest X-ray showed hyperinflation of the lungs, but my doctor mentioned it might just be because I took a deep breath, saying the X-ray looks normal. The ENT said it could be early signs of asthma. Im on AB Phylline 100mg, Alex Syrup, and Prustalin Antihistamine, which have almost stopped my cough, but I still have phlegm and post-nasal drip, especially when I don't take Prustalin. I have a non-smoker background, no exposure to chemical fumes, but my mom does have asthma, and my IgE level came back at 440 with eosinophils last checked at 10.5. Is this really asthma? Should I be considering inhalers after finishing this current course of medication, and do the X-ray and PFT results seem normal to you?
Your current symptoms and reports suggest allergic airway inflammation that may be managed well without inhalers.Check with family history for asthma

How long is it safe to keep a pulse oximeter on my finger? I've noticed that when I leave it on for a while, the readings sometimes start to drop. Is this something to be concerned about?
