Because your mother is experiencing chest heaviness and shortness of breath with oxygen levels between 92% and 94%, she needs immediate medical evaluation. Please contact her treating doctor or a hospital right away. She may require a chest evaluation and blood tests to check for lung inflammation. In the meantime, encourage her to lie on her stomach (awake prone positioning) to help improve her oxygenation. Keep monitoring her oxygen closely. If her oxygen levels drop below 92% or her breathing difficulty worsens, please seek emergency hospital care immediately.

It is possible to get a false negative on a COVID-19 test, especially early in the illness, so your father could still have COVID-19 or the seasonal flu. Repeating the test in 48 hours is a safe precaution. Regarding his medications, Dolo (paracetamol) is safe and effective for managing his nighttime fever and sore throat. However, Azee 500 (azithromycin) is an antibiotic and will not treat viral illnesses like flu or COVID-19. He should avoid taking azithromycin unless a healthcare professional specifically prescribes it for a confirmed bacterial infection. Please keep him comfortable, well-hydrated, and consult his doctor for a personalized treatment plan.

Azee contains the antibiotic azithromycin, which is highly effective against bacterial infections but will not work if your fever is caused by a viral infection. Alternatively, the bacteria causing your illness might be resistant to this specific antibiotic. Since your fever has lasted more than a week, it is very important to consult your healthcare provider again. They can perform tests to find the exact cause of your fever and prescribe the appropriate treatment. For now, please focus on staying well-hydrated and getting plenty of rest.

Azee 500 contains azithromycin, which is an antibiotic. It will only help if your infection is bacterial, and won't work for viral infections like a cold or flu. Taking antibiotics unnecessarily should be avoided. For immediate relief, try warm saltwater gargles, stay well-hydrated, and use saline nasal drops. Over-the-counter pain relievers like paracetamol can help ease your throat, headache, and ear pain to help you rest. Please see a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis before starting any antibiotics.

Since you do not have a fever, body aches, or pain, taking paracetamol (or Dolo 650) is not necessary right now. Azee 500 contains azithromycin, which is an antibiotic; it is ineffective against viral colds and should only be taken if a doctor prescribes it for a confirmed bacterial infection. For a scratchy throat and early cold symptoms, simple remedies are highly effective. Try warm saline gargles, steam inhalation, and staying well-hydrated with warm fluids. Please consult a doctor if you develop a fever or if your symptoms worsen.

At day 10, her body is actively recovering. Regarding her medications, Azee 500 (azithromycin), doxy (doxycycline), and ivermectin are generally not recommended for routine COVID-19 treatment unless a doctor has confirmed a secondary bacterial infection. Taking multiple antibiotics unnecessarily can cause side effects. We recommend consulting her doctor about safely stopping these. For her fever, she can safely use paracetamol, stay well-hydrated, and rest. Loss of taste and smell is common and will gradually improve. Please seek a doctor's evaluation if the fever persists or if she develops any breathing discomfort.
