How Can Fever And Body Chills Be Treated?

I am having flu symptoms, i took promethazine, left over from previous flu prescription. I am having chills right night, feel feverish. I took baby aspirin after dinner, usual dosage that I take daily. I have amoxilin tab (500mg), also from previousrecription. Can I start taking it now, it s late night, I could not call my prime dr. Also can I take tylenol for my fever, though I took aspirin about 3 hrs ago? Thank you so much for your help.

Hi,

Don't take amoxicillin its an antibiotic unless your physician prescribes, take a combination of PARACETAMOL + PENIRAMINE MALEATE or PCM + MONTELUKAST + LEVOCETRIZINE. You can also take promethazine.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohd Awais Ilyas
