Hello, I have a 5-month-old baby who has a temperature on his temple ranging from 98.8 to 99.4 degrees Fahrenheit. He doesn't seem to want to eat as much, and his eyes are red and watery. Should he be taken in? The baby also coughs and sneezes occasionally, but the symptoms are not getting worse. There are no rashes on his body, and he is generally healthy.

I was prescribed Roxithromycin 150mg twice a day for a sinus infection. I have two main concerns: 1) Does this antibiotic affect birth control? 2) I have an intense fear of vomiting. Is roxithromycin more gentle or well tolerated compared to amoxicillin, and how common is vomiting on this antibiotic?

I stopped taking Prozac two months ago and am now experiencing severe sleep issues with restless legs and increasing depression. I was diagnosed with Major Depression over 20 years ago and the main side effects of Prozac were loss of libido and memory loss. I have seen doctors about these issues but they were dismissed as age-related. I also have asthma, which is well-controlled. What alternatives to Prozac can I consider that do not cause sexual dysfunction?

I have been taking PPI (proton pump inhibitors) since 2015, and recently, I have been feeling heavy and tired after taking Nexium. I have reduced my PPI intake to 2-3 times a week, but I am concerned about the risks associated with long-term PPI use, such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney failure. Additionally, I have not been able to walk long distances or lift heavy things without feeling out of breath, even though my heart and lungs are fine. What should I do to reduce these risks and manage my symptoms?
