Answer : 2. "bade me to take"
Explanation :

The correct sentence should be:

The doctor bade me take the medicine immediately after breakfast.

Explanation: In this sentence, the base form of the verb "take" should be used after the verb "bade." The construction "bade me taking" is incorrect; it should be "bade me take" to convey the intended meaning.
