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 planning to take albendazole tablets and I'm wondering if there's anything specific I should know about how to take them. Is it true that I need to wait two weeks between doses, and should I really be taking them with warm sweet milk before bed? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.
Tablet alben dazzle is for worm infestation. If you have evidence of infection confirmed then take one tablet now and repeat after two weeks. If you are staying with family or sharing space or things with others, get everyone with weight >20 kg to take the stat dose. Best taken 2hours after food at night. What ever is your choice, milk water or juice.

I'm feeling well and my mom is okay too, but just as a precaution, we both take steam regularly at night. We usually add kalonji to boiling hot water before taking steam. I'm just a bit concerned and want to know if it's safe for us to keep doing this regularly?

I'm feeling like I have a fever, but when I check my body temperature, it seems normal. I haven't got a thermometer handy right now. What should I do? Is there a specific medicine you'd recommend for this?
If you're experiencing internal feverish sensations without a raised body temperature, you can try taking Paracetamol (Crocin, Calpol, or equivalent) 500mg-1000mg, but if symptoms persist or worsen, consult a doctor to rule out underlying conditions that may require specific treatment.
