Am I safe with alcohol with paracetamol?
I drunk 4 sips of alcohol 30 mins after 500 mg paracetamol . But I realised I should not and I stopped. Am I safe?
General Physician
Answered on 13th June '24
It's probably not a good idea to drink alcohol after paracetamol. Though nothing terrible will happen if you've only had a few sips, it’s great that you didn’t drink more. Watch out for any nausea, stomachache or dizziness. If you start feeling bad, it’s better to visit a doctor.

I took anti rabies vaccine yesterday, can I drink alcohol after 48 hrs? As on next day I have last vaccine shot
Male | 29
After receiving the vaccine, it is alright to have alcohol after 48 hours. Drinking alcohol while taking a vaccine could potentially cause some mild side effects like nausea and headache. However, all you need to do is wait 48 hours after each shot, and you will be able to get back to normal. Make sure to follow the vaccine's instructions exactly as they are written to protect yourself and talk to your healthcare provider if you have any worries.

Hi, Our 1.1 year old baby did a blood test, and several abnormal values were found: IMMATURE GRANULOCYTES 0.18 k/ul IMMATURE GRANULOCYTES % 1.4 NEUTROPHILS % 16 LYMPHOCYTES 10 k/ul LYMPHOCYTES % 76.8 MONOCYTES % 4.6 HEMOGLOBIN 10.6 G/Dl MCHC 31.5 G/Dl MYELOCYTES BS % 0.9 ANISOCYTOSIS + MICROCYTES + The test was done after having several bacterial and viral infections in a row (we finished with antibiotics 2 days before the test). Is there a reason to worry? Thanks!
Male | 1
Test results suggest that your 1.1-year-old baby has viral or bacterial infection, which is still going on. Probably, you should see a pediatrician ASAP and bring the results of the test along with you. They will show you the right way of treatment. Don't put off seeking medical care too much.

I am a 17 yr old girl with trouble sleeping and cannot fall asleep for a month now, immediate nausea after eating , and no feeling of hunger at all with hot flashes and not pregnant
Female | 17
You seem stressed out, facing difficulties falling asleep, feeling ill quickly after meals, lacking appetite, and experiencing hot flashes. These could result from academic pressures, relationship issues, or personal worries causing anxiety. Before bedtime, practice relaxation techniques. Eat smaller portions frequently instead of heavy meals.

A.o.A...my mother of 85, completely on bed she is a diabetic. Today she is sweating slightly.
Female | 85
Excessive sweating might signal her blood sugar is dipping low. That's common for folks with diabetes. Give her something sugary - a candy or juice should do the trick. Also, check those glucose readings. Staying hydrated helps too. But if the sweating persists or odd symptoms come up, don't hesitate to loop in her doctor for advice.

Banana chips can be high in sodium and unhealthy fats since it is fried. If you have kidney stones, you need to limit your intake of sodium and unhealthy fats. High sodium intake can increase calcium excretion in urine, potentially contributing to the formation of certain types of kidney stones.

Don't take Tums and Benadryl together. Tums can help with heartburn or other stomach problems, while Benadryl might be used for itching caused by allergies. However, if both drugs are taken simultaneously it may result in side effects such as dizziness, sleepiness and confusion. For better performance without health risks ensure they have been taken few hours apart.

Male | 31
It is hard to figure out the reason of your symptoms without a physical exam and medical history review. But the chance of you having a viral infection such as a flu, which may cause you to have fatigue, constipation and body pain, cannot be ruled out. I suggest that you approach a specialist for further examination and for treatment purpose.

Is sugar level 106.24 H is valid for medical test ?
Male | 22
The term "106.24 H" is not a standard unit of measurement for blood sugar levels. Blood sugar levels are typically measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or millimoles per liter (mmol/L).
If the value you mentioned, 106.24 H, is in mg/dL or mmol/L, it would be helpful to know the reference range or normal range provided by the specific laboratory or healthcare institution conducting the test.
