[|Human|] Dear Dr. Santosh,I have started a flu with cough since 3 days, with a fever reaching 39 Celsius Degrees.I have taken Panadol , two capsules each six hours, as I dont dare to take too much medicine since I am coronary and a MS Patient, and I have chronic medicine like Aspirine, Concor, ZOCOR, corvasal as well as Interferon(Rebif 44)  one Injection every other day.But the high temperature persists , I started to take Curam 1g, twice a day, along with my others medicines. The temperature is reduced the second day till 38 CD but I have started to feel a lower abdominal pain,I stopped to take CURAN, and I resume taking Panadol. The temperature is stable now at 38, and I am drinking two much water with taking Mucosolvan . The lower abdominal pain is still persisting. What do you suggest?Thanks in advance , Joseph
[|AI|]  Hi ! The very point that on taking Cram, your fever is reduced indicates that your respiratory tract infection has responded to the Chat Doctor.  The lower abdominal pain which you have developed could have been due to Cram (Amoxicillin+clavulunic acid) which is known to cause such lower abdominal pain as a side effect. It may also cause loose motions sometimes. This is not a worrying problem. You can change over to any other antibiotic not containing amoxicillin on consultation with your treating physician. At the same time, multivitamin product containing lac to bacillus is also found to work well in such conditions. The pain lower abdomen will gradually subside. Continue with other medications given for your heart problem. Take care.
