It seems you’re experiencing fever, sneezing, and a runny nose, and you’ve taken Dolo, Cepodem 200, and Montek LC. Here’s some guidance:
1. Dolo (Paracetamol) is effective for reducing fever and mild pain. Continue as advised, but avoid exceeding the recommended dosage.
2. Montek LC (Montelukast with Levocetirizine) helps in managing allergy symptoms like sneezing and runny nose. This can provide relief if these symptoms are due to allergies.
3. Cepodem (Cefpodoxime) is an antibiotic typically prescribed for bacterial infections. If your symptoms are primarily viral (like common colds or flu), antibiotics may not be necessary. Antibiotics are generally reserved for bacterial infections to avoid unnecessary side effects and resistance.
Supportive Care:
Rest adequately and stay hydrated.
Use steam inhalation or a humidifier to relieve nasal congestion.
Warm salt water gargles can soothe a sore throat if present.
Avoid exposure to smoke, dust, and other irritants.
If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s best to get a thorough evaluation to rule out any specific infection or complications. For a detailed consultation and tailored treatment, feel free to reach out to me via WhatsApp at eight zero zero two one three three two.

general advice, Dolo (paracetamol) can help reduce fever, and Montelukast with levocetirizine (Montek LC) can help with allergy symptoms like a runny nose and sneezing. Cepodem (cefpodoxime) is an antibiotic, which is typically prescribed if there’s a bacterial infection.
However, if you’ve just started feeling unwell, it may be better to avoid antibiotics unless a doctor confirms it’s necessary. For a viral cold or flu, antibiotics won’t be effective, and they should be taken only under medical supervision to avoid unnecessary resistance.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids.
Rest well to help your body fight off the infection.
Use steam inhalation or saline nasal sprays to relieve congestion.
Next Steps
If symptoms persist for more than a few days, get worse, or if you feel any new symptoms, it would be best to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

As you mentioned, the medications what you are taking is sufficient for your symptoms.
Don't stress yourself too much, take proper rest and dring hot water/coffee/tea.
As you are taking these medications, it will take some time to act. So wait for 2 more days and see.
Even after 2 days if there is no improvement then get
CBC
Next Steps
