My dad was admitted about a week ago. His white blood cell count was 16,800, but it's normal now. However, the Widal test came back positive at 1:160. He's on treatment with Pipzo 4.5g injections, Pantop, Ns 500ml, Nurostar injections, and taking Calpol 650 and Cefuroxime 500 twice a day. Is this the right approach? I'm a bit worried and could use some guidance.

View allI'm feeling a bit stuck because my doctor recommended Mebex Plus tablets for me, but I can't seem to find them in any pharmacies nearby. Is it okay if I just take regular Mebex instead?
No problem you have to take

I'm a bit concerned about my temperature readings. They're usually between 98.6 and 99.2, but most often fall between 98.5 and 98.8. I'm not feeling feverish or anything, but should I be worried? Is this considered a fever?
A normal oral body temperature ranges from 97.7F to 99.5F, so your temperature readings (98.5-99.2F) are within the normal range, and it's unlikely to be a fever, especially if you're not experiencing any feverish symptoms

I'm really struggling with a bad cold right now, and my nose is completely blocked. I've been taking cepodem 200 for a throat infection, but I'm not sure what else I can use for the cold because cetrizine doesn't really agree with me. Could you suggest something that might help?
Cepodem 200 is an antibiotic, but antibiotics are not effective against viruses, which cause colds.you can use allegra [fexofenadine]as an alternative to citrizen If your symptoms persist for more than 710 days or worsen, you may want to consult your doctor again.
