[|AI|]  Hi, Yes, fever and vomiting are common after taking Akurit-4. Fever is an important initially occurring side effect of rifampicin (one of the four Chat Doctor.  It usually resolves by the second week of starting the treatment. However, other causes of fever should be determined if it persists beyond this period. Vomiting is also an important side effect of Akurit-4 which usually occurs if the tablet is taken on an empty stomach. This can be prevented by taking the tablet after meals. However, other causes of nausea and vomiting should be detected and treated accordingly. Take healthy balanced and nutritious diet, like fresh fruits, meat, poultry, fish, etc. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
