No streph, no flu only a sinus infection . They gave her tyenol with codeine and zithromax . I don t see any improvement. They said she also has a cold. Is there any over the counter medicine she can take with the other two prescriptions

Hello
Thanks for your query Based on the symptoms that you have stated it looks that your daughter has got Viral infection of the upper respiratory tract.Your Dr has prescribe some drugs but she has not improved to your satisfaction.Normally the viral infection takes a weeks time to recover irrespective of taking medicines You have to just give symptomatic treatment.
