Dry cough with discomfort

2020-07-29 15:27:38
I have continuous slight cough and suspecting COVID got tested but the result is negative. Have taken a course of Montek LC, Azithromycin, Pan DSR, Mucenac for 3 days as prescribed by a known medical practitioner. Since no good results, consulted another doctor who prescribed Enzomac, Montek LC, Grillinctus Syrup for 5 days. It's around 3 days and the cough is not reduced instead raising causing discomfort. Please help me to identify and cure my cough.

Get appropriate investigations done if nothing works. Before that, take a proper antibiotic course. Also,  it may be an allergic cough which takes some time to go away inspite of medicines. Drink warm water for some days.

I don't see any point changing your doctor or prscription so frequently. I can understand ypur anxiety but the prior combination that your physician advised, the one with azithro, pantoprazole, mucenac and montair LC is actually complete in itself. I would like you to complete this course of 5 days. 1. Add tab Pantoprazole to the current(2nd) regime. 2. Take steam inhalation atleast twice daily gor complete relief and quite benefit. 3. Drink atleast 8-10 glasses of water per day.
