I'm getting sick every few months, and I don't know why. I'm in Bangalore, and it usually starts with a sore throat and then leads to a cough, cold, and fever. The fever lasts a couple of days, but the cold and cough can drag on for weeks. I've noticed it can happen after I travel back to Bangalore or start going to the gym, or even sometimes during normal days. I've seen a lot of doctors, even at Manipal, but they just give me meds like Amoxicillin and cough syrup without looking deeper into what's going on. I'm really frustrated. What can I do to find a long-term solution for this?

I'm on levocetirizine at night, and it's making me feel drowsy and weak throughout the day. Is this a normal side effect I should be worried about? My doctor prescribed it, but I'm curious if this is typical.

yes it should be common

I've been dealing with allergic rhinitis for about 20 years now, and I've tried almost every antihistamine and nasal spray available. I recently came across a nasal spray called Azelast or Arzep, which has an antihistamine named azelastine HCl. I'm curious if it's safe to use this spray whenever I need to since it doesn't contain steroids. Can you shed some light on this?

no problem you can take
