Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to HCM.
The medication you have started is correct. Continue it as advised by the doctor.
But for faster recovery you need to do warm saline gargles and steam inhalation, 3-4 times a day too. This will help cure your sore throat and open your sinuses faster.
Also avoid oily and cold foods till you get cured.
Hope I have been helpful.
