Question 1

I have a high fever of 104, and I took a Dolo tablet. What should I do next to bring it down safely?

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

A high fever of 104 is often due to a severe infection and requires close care to bring it down safely. Take proper rest, drink plenty of fluids, keep your body lightly covered, and use lukewarm sponging to help lower your body temperature. Continue taking the fever medicine only as advised, monitor your temperature every few hours, and watch for signs such as weakness, confusion, or shivering. If the fever does not come down, keeps rising, or you feel very unwell, seek medical help urgently for proper treatment.

Question 2

I have recurring fever, body pain, and a sore throat. I have taken Dolo-650 Tablet, but it is not effective. What should I do?

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

If Dolo-650 Tablet (Paracetamol) is not relieving your symptoms, it may indicate a viral or bacterial infection or another underlying condition. You should consult a doctor promptly for proper diagnosis and treatment. Meanwhile, rest adequately, stay well-hydrated, avoid strenuous activity, and monitor for worsening symptoms such as high fever, severe pain, or difficulty breathing, which require urgent medical attention.

Question 3

I have been having body pain, a blocked head and a fever for the past two days. I took Dolo 650 this morning and feel a bit better. What treatment should I follow next?

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

Body pain, blocked head, and fever for 2 days are usually due to a viral infection causing congestion and weakness. Continue rest, drink warm fluids, do steam inhalation, eat light food, and stay well hydrated to support recovery. You can take fever relief as advised, keep your head warm, and avoid cold exposure or heavy work. Monitor your temperature and symptoms, and if fever lasts beyond a few days, worsens, or new symptoms appear, consult a doctor for proper evaluation and care.

Question 4

What happens if I take expired Dolo?

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

Expired medicines should not be taken, as their effectiveness can reduce over time and they may not work as intended. In some cases, expired products can also become unsafe due to changes in their chemical composition, especially if they were not stored properly. To avoid health risks and ensure proper treatment, always use medicines within their expiry date. If you accidentally take an expired medicine, consult a doctor promptly, even if you feel fine, to rule out any possible complications.

Question 5

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

Since manufacturing and expiry dates can differ for each batch, we usually do not display them online to avoid confusion or incorrect information. Rest assured, all products, including this one, are carefully checked and confirmed to be within the expiry period before they are shipped to you.

Question 6

I have a slight fever, a dry cough, and a cold, and I took amoxicillin and Dolo 650, but after taking these medicines, I got mouth ulcers. What should I do?

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

A fever with a dry cough and a cold is often due to a viral infection, and antibiotics may not always be needed. Mouth ulcers can sometimes occur due to irritation, infection, or side effects of medication. Drink plenty of fluids, eat soft foods, and avoid very spicy or acidic items until the ulcers heal. Consult a doctor if the fever or ulcers persist or worsen.
