Can you please suggest future course of action.
Brief Answer:
Duration of symptoms
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
How long is she having these symptoms?
The current symptoms are typically caused by viral infection. And such infections resolve spontaneously in a few days. I would treat her with symptomatic treatment:
1. Tab Dolo 650mg three times a day.
2. Tab Levocetrizine 5mg once at night.
3. Tab Zincovit once daily.
She should feel better in 3-5 days. Encourage her to drink plenty of fluids. If she doesn't get better, let me know.
Hope this helps.
Regards

Thanks doc. She took a cetrizine (Okacet prob 10 mg) in morning and a paracetamol 500mg at afternoon. Is it still fine to go ahead today with the ones you prescribed?
Brief Answer:
Okacet is good...
Detailed Answer:
Okacet 10mg is good and will work as well as a levocetrizine. She can continue with it. However I prefer she takes it at night instead of morning.
Paracetamol 500g is also good enough. But if she has body pain or headache I will prefer Dolo 650 over paracetamol 500mg. Dolo 650 has better pain relieving functions than paracetamol 500.
Hope this answered your question. If you have no more questions, please close the discussion and review.
