Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for asking a question to H.C.M.F.
You have hard cough since 3 weeks, previously you had cough and used quadtab, will it be all right.
Cough is of many types, cough due to upper respiratory tract infection, and lung infection, allergic infection etc. the organisms differ in each cough.
I advise you to consult a chest physician for diagnosis and treatment.
Avoid taking fruits, juices, ice creams, and ice water to avoid congestion and allergy.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
Best regards.
