Dr. William Zachary Cohen MD's Expert Contributions
  • Covid concerns?

    If you're sure you did them correctly, 2 rapid at home tests conducted 24 hours apart both positive is definite evidence of confirmed COVID-19. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Do I need a rabies vaccine?

    No William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Calories after exercise?

    2000 cal a day is probably normal amount for the average adult. NIH guidelines are probably pretty accurate. Remember that you burn up 800 cal a day doing absolutely nothing, but breathing, having your heart beat, and organs function. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Is general anesthesia used for colonoscopy?

    No. Usually only light sedation. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Polymyaglia condition?

    Yes. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • What is the best and safest blood pressure medication?

    There is no one answer to this question. And it depends greatly on your circumstances - age, race, gender, and comorbidities. And also how high your blood pressure is. Consult with your doctor, one with experience and expertise in hypertension to find the best medication for you. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Why do I have body odor?

    I think that you may be obsessing over this problem. Do other people around you notice this? Do your parents? Do your siblings or friends? You may be obsessive-compulsive and bathing too much. Too much bathing washes away essential body oils and can lead to skin infections. People that eat very pungent foods such as onions and garlic may emanate that odor. If none of this applies to you, consult an internist, endocrinologist, or dermatologist. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Does taking tamsulosin, and sertraline, with lansoprazole, worsen dementia?

    None of those medicine sound like they have been strongly associated with dementia. Although I believe there has been some speculation about long-term use of PPIs, of which lansoprazole is part of that class. But I am not the best one to ask. I would talk to a neurologist. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Can blood clots form sores?

    NO. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Can I drink a little while taking this med?

    You should not. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • How do I heal these symptoms?

    Your symptoms require the evaluation of a good primary care doctor. There are many things that could be causing your headaches, and neck pain. Including stress, anxiety, and depression. A good doctor can look in your ears and evaluate the problem. See a regular physician. Do not go to the ER for this kind of evaluation. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • I took 600 mg of lamictal?

    600 mg of Lamictal in one day is not likely to hurt you, especially if you normally take 400 mg per day. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Can I take an Omega 3 supplement?

    I am not aware of prostate cancer concerns with omega-3 fish oil capsules. I would consult with your urologist. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Ivermectin?

    Ivermectin is a prescription medication, just like penicillin is. You cannot get it without a prescription because of the potential for misuse. This medication has serious side effects in many cases, and is only indicated for specific illnesses! The fuss is all about the fact that it is not indicated for nor has been shown to be effective in treating COVID-19! William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Can I stop taking my Cephalexin?

    I would advise my patients to do so as soon as the culture came back negative. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Flushed and hot?

    No. You should not drink. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Do I have csf leak?

    Get tested for Covid-19. See a doctor. If you have a fever, go to the ER. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Condom breaking?

    I'd be more worried about getting pregnant. William Z. Cohen M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Covid rapid test?

    It's not too late to get vaccinated either. William Z. Cohen, M.D., FAAFP READ MORE

  • Hole in stomach after missed shot of meth?

    You are probably going to die. READ MORE
