I'm feeling pretty worried; I've been dealing with a cough and cold for the past two weeks. I've already taken 10 tablets of Sumo Cold and 6 tablets of Roxid 150 mg, but today the coughing has gotten worse. What should I do next?

It seems like your current medication is not effectively managing your symptoms. I recommend adding an expectorant like Mucolite syrup (10ml twice daily) to help with the increased coughing. Additionally, you can take a cough suppressant like Ascoril syrup (5ml thrice daily) to alleviate the coughing spells. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.

I've just been bitten by a cat, but luckily it didn't break the skin. There's just a small, light mark on my leg. I got a tetanus shot about three months ago, so I'm wondering if there's anything else I need to do. Should I be worried or do anything specific now?

Question

I'm just wondering, how often should I take D-Cold Total in a day? I'm feeling a bit under the weather and not sure what's safe. Could you guide me on this?
