Hello. Welcome to hcm.
You have infection and has been prescribed antibiotics with steroid. Now,your immune system will be low. It is really not advisable to take a herbal medicine which causes sedation as your brain and heart wil go in for shock if doses are not correct.
I advice you to wait for a week where in your infection will subside and your immune system wil recover. Then you can have this herbal medicine.
Take care
