We have swineflu and my GP Prescribed me mypaid forte, 2 pills 3 times a day. I allready had my pills For the evening, but I forgot I took it. Then now walking past it for some reason I took another one - but as I swallowed 1 pull I realised that I allready took this pill. Is it dangerous? I tried to vomit but could not get it out.

Taking an extra dose of medication, especially in this case, can be potentially dangerous and may lead to overdose or adverse reactions. Swine flu is a serious viral infection, and taking medication as prescribed is crucial for proper treatment. However, taking more than the prescribed dose can lead to harmful side effects.

I am 33 Male. Since few months I am noticing, I feel feverish in the morning when I wake up and at night, when I am about to sleep. Nose are not block, but sill cough symptoms are there. I feel tried for entire day as well. I am very much worried if it is indicating towards HIV? Because I have been seeing this symptoms on internet and also took clinical help from a local doctor, so he said blood test, although I am not able to read full, but I can see it's written ICTC. Why it is written ICTC there? :( I am a virgin, I am very much worried. Please help me.

Male | 33

The feverish feeling, cough, and fatigue you're experiencing could stem from various causes, such as infections or allergies. ICTC refers to Integrated Counselling and Testing Centre, which is where HIV tests are often conducted. It's great that you're seeking help. Since you've seen a doctor, it's vital to follow through with the recommended blood tests for clarity. These tests will provide more information and help rule out any serious conditions. Continue to prioritize your health, and don't hesitate to contact a healthcare professional for guidance and support.
