Nasal polyps can severely block your airway, potentially causing sleep apnea (where breathing temporarily stops), which can trigger a racing heart, chest pain, and anxiety. Since stopping Predmet, your polyps may have regrown. While clonazepam helps with anxiety, it does not treat the physical blockage. I gently urge you to see an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist. They can discuss long-term solutions, such as endoscopic surgery or targeted medications to shrink the polyps. Please also have a doctor evaluate your chest pain and racing heart promptly to ensure your safety.

Is it safe to take Predmet 8 mg once a day for COVID-19 with mild lung infection shown on my chest scan, and can I increase the dose to twice a day on my own if my fever and cough do not improve?

Please do not increase your dose of Predmet (methylprednisolone) on your own. Corticosteroids must be carefully managed by a doctor. Taking a higher dose without medical guidance can lead to unwanted side effects and may even delay your recovery. It is important to continue with the prescribed 8 mg once daily and immediately consult your healthcare provider if your fever or cough worsens. They can safely evaluate your lung scan and adjust your treatment if needed. Please rest, stay hydrated, and monitor your oxygen levels.

Now that my mother's fever has gone down and her blood oxygen levels are staying steady at 97% after starting her new medications (Cloff 500 mg and Predmet 16 mg), can we safely continue caring for her Covid-19 lung infection at home, even though her recent lung scans and blood inflammation tests had shown some worsening?

It is very reassuring that your mother's fever has subsided and her oxygen levels are stable at 97% on Cloff (cefaclor) and Predmet (methylprednisolone). However, because her recent lung scans and blood tests showed some worsening, she still requires close monitoring. You can continue home care safely only by staying in daily contact with her treating physician to review these test results. Please seek immediate medical help if she develops difficulty breathing, chest pain, confusion, or if her oxygen levels drop below 94%.

I have been taking Predmet 4 mg and naproxen 250 mg twice a day for five days for a fever, but now that my fever is gone and I feel better, should I continue taking these medicines or stop them, since I cannot reach my doctor?

You can safely stop taking the naproxen now that your fever is gone, as it is primarily used for symptom relief. However, Predmet (methylprednisolone) is a corticosteroid. Even with a short five-day course, it is safest not to stop steroid medications abruptly without professional confirmation. Since you cannot reach your doctor, I highly recommend contacting a local pharmacist or an urgent care clinic. They can safely advise you on whether to complete or taper the Predmet based on your prescription details. Please continue to rest and stay well-hydrated.

How long will it take for my recovering COVID-19 mother?s blood clot marker (D-dimer) to drop to a normal level below 500 after being treated with Predmet and four injections of the blood thinner enoxoperin?

It is quite common for D-dimer levels to remain elevated after COVID-19. Typically, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to three months for this marker to gradually drop below 500. Her treatments with Predmet and the blood thinner enoxaparin (enoxoperin) have helped protect her during the high-risk period. Since her body is still healing from infection-related inflammation, this gradual decline is completely normal. Please continue to follow up with her doctor, who will monitor her progress and ensure her recovery remains safely on track.

After being hospitalized for COVID-19 and treated with Monocef, Pan, blood thinners, and Remdesivir, is my current post-discharge treatment of Predmet (16 mg twice a day), Eliquis (once a day), and immunity boosters sufficient, and should I get another COVID-19 test now or wait, given that I feel well and my oxygen level is 96%?

Your current regimen of Predmet (methylprednisolone) and Eliquis (apixaban) is appropriate for post-hospitalization recovery to manage inflammation and prevent blood clots. It is crucial to take these exactly as prescribed; do not stop Predmet suddenly, as it requires gradual tapering under your doctors guidance. Since you are recovering well and are symptom-free, a repeat COVID-19 test is generally not necessary, as tests can detect inactive virus for weeks. Continue resting, monitoring your oxygen, and follow up with your treating physician.

My husband tested positive for COVID-19 on April 30th with a fever of 100?102?F, an oxygen level of 97%, and a chest scan highly suggestive of COVID-19 (CO-RADS 5) with a severity score of 16 out of 40. Since he is feeling extremely weak and tired all day, are his prescribed medicines?Predmet, Doxy 100, Immu C Plus, Mvel, Vermact 12 mg, Caldikind 60k (once a week for 8 weeks), Glemont-F, Erirab-D, and Dolo 650 (three times a day)?correct, how long should he take them, and when can we expect him to get back to normal?

His prescribed medications, including Predmet (methylprednisolone) for inflammation, Doxy 100 (doxycycline), Glemont-F, and Dolo 650 (paracetamol) for symptom relief, are standard for managing COVID-19. Caldikind should be taken weekly as prescribed. Most of these medications are typically continued for 5 to 10 days, but please follow his doctor's exact schedule, especially for tapering the steroid Predmet. Fatigue is very common, and he should gradually start feeling better over the next 2 to 3 weeks with rest and hydration. Monitor his oxygen levels daily.
