What's in my drink affecting my medication? How counteract?

I was consulting a sangoma(witchdoctor) who gave me something to drink over a course of four months. Now i cant feel the effects of my medication or any other drugs for that matter. What could have been in the drink and how do I counter it?

Answered on 28th May '24

The beverage you had from the traditional healer might have had substances that blocked your body from taking in or reacting to drugs. Sometimes specific plants or chemicals can do this. The things you are going through like not being affected by medication could be because of this blockage. I suggest you stop taking the beverage at once and go to see a doctor. They will be able to examine you and give you the right treatment.

68 yrs old woman suffering continuous allergy for 3 months after eating shrimp

Female | 68

While shrimp can cause allergy, a very long-lasting allergy from shrimp alone is not a common condition. It's important to consider other dimensions such as the possibility of underlying medical conditions or dietary triggers. It is advisable to visit a medical specialist, since the healthcare professional should do a proper examination and manage your health.

I am from South Africa and was vaccinated against measles, does that mean I am vaccinated for mumps and rubella?

Female | 26

If you have been vaccinated against measles it doesn't necessarily mean that you are covered against mumps and rubella. Each of measles, mumps, and rubella is a different disease. They each have their vaccine that is necessary for protection. Mumps may make you have swollen glands while rubella can cause a rash and fever. To be entirely safe, make sure that the mumps and rubella vaccinations are received.

I’ve been feeling really tired/sleepy and just completely out of it for just about a week and i’m not sure why

Male | 18

Constant exhaustion for se­ven days is challenging. Various factors contribute to pe­rsistent fatigue. Insufficient re­st or heightened anxie­ty sometimes deple­tes energy. Consuming nutritious me­als and engaging in physical activity may alleviate this condition. Howe­ver, if lethargy persists, consulting a healthcare professional is advisable­s.

Hello! Currently have H.Pylori! Would i be able to take Tetracycline, Bismuth and Flagyl all together 4 times a day

It is not advisable to take these medications all together 4 times a day. These medicines are used to treat H. pylori infection, but their dosage and administration should be based on the individual's medical history and other factors. Talk to your doctor and follow the guidelines they prescribe for the medications

I'm little concerned about exposure to pure toluene. I think I accidentally inhaled toluene vapours while working with it on solvents. Although nothing seems to be affected, but what precautionary measure should I take now? I don't huff toluene or inhale intentionally for addiction. But, I work with toluene as an artist to restore damaged brushes or wipe of paints

Male | 31

Toluene exposure can cause dizziness, headaches, and lightheadedness. Move to a well-ventilated area when using it and wear a protective mask. If you feel unwell, go outside for fresh air immediately.

Patient experienced pain after carrying a child on her shoulder and caused bruising in the right side of her collar near the neckline. until the bruising created a bump and eventually ruptured. The injury has healed yet after a year a change occurred where the scarring tissue is now bulging and causing discomfort to the patient

Female | 18

It looks like the person has a hernia that is linked to the previous injury. I would suggest getting an appointment with a general surgery expert for further management and evaluation of that condition.

Can I take montair lc with ors

Female | 22

It is not safe to take Montair LC with ORS without a doctor's advice. Montair LC is a drug to cure asthma and allergenic rhinitis while ORS cures dehydration. One should see a doctor who deals with lung diseases before taking any drug for such illnesses.
