Usually AUGPEN won't cause sedation and causes for your sedation is LCZ. it contains an anti Histamine known as cetrizine which causes sedation. If you don't have cold then you can stop LCZ and take simple pain killer like dolo650 for pain management
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist if your symptoms do not subside
