I'm currently dealing with a heavy cough and cold, despite taking mox 250 capsule and levosiz 5mg tablet. These have helped me breathe easier, but I'm still feeling a sore throat, and it feels like the cough is stuck in my chest but comes out when I cough. Can you suggest a more permanent solution to fully recover from this?
