My dad is 59 and has diabetes. He's had a fever for the past 8-10 days and just tested positive for COVID-19. Though he hasn't had any breathing issues so far, his temperature has been normal for the last 36 hours. He takes Cetanil T every morning and Glycomet SR. Right now, he's very weak and has a dry cough. I'm really worried and don't know what to do next. I'm from Nimta, Kolkata. Could you please guide me?

View allI'm having a tough time with a persistent cough for several days now. When I consulted the doctor, they prescribed me some medicines: Zinox 200mg, Telekast, and a cough syrup. My issue is that the Zinox 200mg tablet is really expensive. Could you suggest any alternative medicine that's similar to Zinox 200mg? I'm looking for something more affordable.
