Health Queries

My 3-year-old daughter is shivering with a fever and has diarrhea after recently being hospitalized for stomach inflammation with a high white blood cell count; is it safe for her to continue taking Metrogyl, Aptivate, Taxim O, Zinconia, Dolo 200 mg, and Enterogermina together, and what should I do next?

Y. Lakshmi Thulasi

Y. Lakshmi Thulasi

Pharm-D (Post baccalaureate)

While the prescribed medications like Taxim O (cefixime), Metrogyl (metronidazole), Zinconia (zinc), Enterogermina (probiotics), and Dolo (paracetamol) are commonly used together for stomach infections, her shivering and ongoing diarrhea after a recent hospitalization mean she needs to be evaluated by her pediatrician immediately. Do not stop or alter her medications without consulting her doctor. Keep her hydrated with oral rehydration salts (ORS) in small, frequent sips, and seek urgent medical care to ensure her fever and symptoms are safely managed.

What should I do if my child?s diarrhea has not improved after 10 days, and he now has stomach pain and a fever despite taking Zinconia, Nutolin-B, and Carmicide?

Vikas Singh

Vikas Singh

Since his diarrhea hasn't improved with Zinconia (zinc), Nutolin-B (probiotics), and Carmicide, and he now has a fever and stomach pain, it is very important to have him evaluated by a doctor today. These symptoms suggest he may need a different treatment, such as specific antibiotics, which require a professional medical assessment. In the meantime, please keep him well-hydrated with oral rehydration salts (ORS) and water. Avoid giving any new medications without a doctor's advice.

Is it normal for my 5-month-old baby to poop three times a day for 14 days, and are the prescribed medications Zinconia, cefixime oral suspension, and lactic acid appropriate for him?

Vikas Singh

Vikas Singh

M Pharmacy

Passing stool three times a day can be normal, but a 14-day change warrants attention. The prescribed medications are highly appropriate: cefixime oral suspension is an antibiotic to treat potential bacterial infections, Zinconia (zinc) helps restore the gut lining and reduce the duration of diarrhea, and lactic acid is a probiotic that replenishes healthy gut bacteria. Please ensure your sweet baby stays well-hydrated with breast milk or formula. Carefully follow your pediatrician's exact dosing, and contact them if you notice any signs of dehydration, fever, or blood in the stool.

What is the best treatment and dosage for a persistent cough, sore throat, and shortness of breath that have lasted for 5 to 6 months and keep returning, despite trying homeopathic and Ayurvedic remedies, as well as medications like Azithromycin, Citrizine, Montelukast, Etophylline, methylprednisolone, paracetamol, Zinconia, Limcee, Ivermectin, and Doxycycline?

G.santoshini Reddy

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Because your cough, sore throat, and shortness of breath have lasted for months and haven't responded to medications like azithromycin, montelukast, or methylprednisolone, it is very important to get a proper diagnosis rather than trying more medications. I highly recommend consulting a pulmonologist or an ENT specialist. They can perform essential tests, such as a chest X-ray or spirometry (lung function test), to find the root cause?such as asthma or reflux?and guide you toward the right, safe treatment.

Why am I still unable to fully smell or taste the flavors of my food, especially chicken and fish, even though my sense of smell is about 70% recovered, and could this be related to my recovery process or the supplements I am taking: Zinconia 50mg, Immune CZ, and Medcovon OD?

Dr. S Aneela

Dr. S Aneela

M. Pharm (Pharmacology)., PhD

It is very common to experience selective or incomplete recovery of smell and taste after a viral illness, even when you feel 70% recovered. This distortion, especially with foods like chicken and fish, occurs because your olfactory nerves are still healing and reconnecting to your brain. Your supplements?Zinconia (zinc), Immune CZ (vitamin C and zinc), and Medcovon OD (methylcobalamin/vitamin B12)?are actually supportive of nerve regeneration and immune health, and they are not causing these symptoms. Recovery of these senses is a gradual process, but your progress so far is a very reassuring sign that your body is healing.
