Brief Answer:
Advised cetrizine
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
If I were your treating doctor I would suggest you anti histamines like Cetrizine 10 mg before bed, for three days.
Steam inhalation twice a day.
Drink warm water. Avoid eating cold items and exposure to cold weather.
Continue gargles.
You can drink soups and ginger tea
Do you have cough or throat pain?
If you have temperature or body pains then take paracetamol 650 mg (DOLO). You can repeat it every 8 hours.
If you have any queries I will be happy to help you.
Thank you.
