Headache and Sore throat

Hello,
Sometimes I wakeup having a very strong headache accompanied by sore throat or blocked nose, I get a little high temperature, then I take Uphamol and Sobenz, then next day it goes…it keep happening every 3-4 days, and with the COVID-19 panic I start to imagine things and get anxiety attach.
P.S I am quarantined in my home since 17 days, but sometimes i go to supermarket and come back quickly, and I keep thinking I got infected during this quick supermarket visit.
Would please prescribe a powerful medication to for headache and temperature in case I suspect I 'm sick and started to panic?
Also if there’s a chance I can find Xanax in KLCC. I remember it helped me 10 years ago when I got similar panic attack back in Mexico during the bird flu 2009.
