Answer 1

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

This looks like a viral rhinitis. I suggest you consider taking tab Sinarest (Caffeine, Chlorpheniramine, Paracetamol, and Phenylephrine) twice a day for three to five days. Take salt water gargles with warm water. Also, I would suggest you take three days of oral antibiotic. Azithromycin 500 mg once a day for three days would suffice. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and with their consent take the medicine.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.

Answer 2

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

If you are having a dry cough then try syrup Tossex (Chlorpheniramine and Codeine). If it is with expectoration, you can try syrup Ascoril (Phenylephrine, Chlorpheniramine, and Dextromethorphan) or Mucolite (Ambroxol) two tablespoon three times a day. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and with their consent take the above medicines.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
