My dad has been dealing with covid and it's been about 6 days now. He's running a fever, peaking at 100F every 24 hours, and his oxygen levels are fluctuating between 93 and 97. He's had a cough even before this, but it seems to have gotten a bit worse since the covid diagnosis. While he's quarantined at home and mostly okay, he does mention feeling short of breath at times. What should we be doing to make sure he's on the right track health-wise?

Question

I've had a cold for the past three months and Im really unsure about what's causing it or how to shake it off. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

Question

Can I take Dolo 650 and Cetirizine together? I'm not sure if it's safe to mix them, and I don't want to have any side effects. I feel like I need both, but I'm just worried. What do you think?

I'm a bit worried about taking Augmentin 625 because I read somewhere that if you've had jaundice in the past, you should let your doctor know. I had jaundice around 15 years back, but I've just finished dealing with chicken pox two weeks ago and now I've got this boil. Do you think it's safe for me to go ahead with Augmentin?
