Fever pills and their interaction with STIs.

Resolved Question:

I am suffering from fever and taking tablets and sometimes use nasal spray to get well soon. I want to know if the fever tablets will affect the pill that I am taking from the past six months and won’t cause any infection as seen in the pics of herpes.

Thanks for your question and concern. You did not clearly tell about the types of medicines or tablets you are taking. It would have been clear with the names if provided. Still, in case you are taking some antibiotics then yes it does affect the effectiveness of the pill. Also some other complementary pills may leave some effect of them on the work that pill does. There are different types of pills and all the pills almost work differently. So before coming to any conclusion, I would suggest you to see a doctor and discuss your problem with them. You can visit any of the local doctors or the clinics of family planning from where you have taken that pill. There might or might not be any infection due to this but you should be very careful with what you take. There is nothing to be afraid from the pics of herpes because various infections cause different problems. In case you can’t reach out the place from where you had got that pill then you could call up the helpline and talk to the nurse and discuss your situation. It is very important to visit a doctor and take everything under the guidance of the doctor only so that it does not affect your health. You should also get proper knowledge about various sexual infections so that in the near future you don’t get afraid from any infection whether seen in the pics of herpes or in the pics of any other infection. Good luck.
