Frequently facing LRTI

2016-12-16 16:06:07
I am suffering from LRTI very frequently. Most of the time it will be controlled by paracetamol, zifi & levocet tablet within three days but now it is taking more time. I am surprised because doctor gave me antibiotics this time onclave 625 which prevent bacterial infection while cold caused by virus. But I do not have fever this time but previously whenver I had lrti i have fever too. I am really worried about this frequent LRTI issue. Can you suggest what will be the root cause?

Even if it is caused by virus...to prevent secondary bacterial infection doctor has given antibiotics....frequent LRTI may be caused by seasonal allergies.....consult a pulmonologist

Hello there.  I can understand your concern.  Zifi is also a antibiotic. Even if the cause is a viral one, antibiotic cover should be given to prevent any secondary bacterial infection. Kindly consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management.  Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
