What should I do now that my fever and sore throat are gone but I have completely lost my sense of taste and smell despite a negative COVID-19 RT-PCR test, and should I continue taking Azithromycin 250 mg, Nimek Para (nimesulide), Zincovit, and using Betadine Gargle?

Temporary loss of taste and smell can happen after viral infections, even with a negative COVID-19 test, and usually improves over time. You can stop taking Nimek Para (nimesulide) since your pain and fever are gone, and discontinue the Betadine gargle. However, please finish the full prescribed course of your antibiotic, Azithromycin, to ensure the infection is completely cleared. You may continue Zincovit to support your recovery. To help regain your senses, try "olfactory training" by sniffing strong, familiar scents like lemon or eucalyptus daily. Please consult your prescribing doctor to safely confirm your medication schedule.
