U can take azithromycin 250 mg twice a day for 5 days as u already started it. For cold n cough u can take Montek LC in the night. Take steam inhalations at least thrice a day, do salt water gargling n drink warm water. Avoid foods n drinks that r cold. If symptoms persist or u find nee symptoms or if symptoms get worse pls get a Covid test done. Wait for a day or two n get the test done
