View allI'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.
