I'm really starting to get worried because I've had this cough and cold for two weeks now, and it's not a dry cough. I've already gone through a whole bottle of Reswas syrup, but it didn't really do anything. I even tried taking Grillintus BM for a day, but I had to stop because I experienced some side effects. What should I do next? Is there something else I can try?

Considering your persistent cough and cold for two weeks, and unsuccessful treatment with Reswas syrup and Grillintus BM, consult me with detaoiled history to reassess your condition, as you may need a different medication or a combination of treatments, such as a mucolytic agent, expectorant, or antihistamine, and in the meantime, try symptomatic relief measures like steam inhalation, saline nasal sprays, and warm liquids.
