Suggest Medication For Persistent Cough Caused By Allergy

Posted on Tue, 2 Feb 2016

Question: Hello Doctor

My mother is taking allergy course on time except Justicia Adh. Q (from Dr. Reckeweg). It is so bitter that she has puked thrice after that medicine even with water. Is there a possibility to change that medicine. That is not consumable to her.

For the entire course you can check the history. She is yet to complete the one month course. It is completing on 25th January 2016.

Detailed Answer:
Good to hear from you
Cough will subside slowly.
This is changing climate and her immunity is weak so keep attention and avoid cold exposure.
Due to irregular intake of medicine action of medicine may be little prolonged.
But no need to worry at all. Keep taking the medicine as prescribed.

Thanks
