Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Based on your history I think that Amoxicillin is a good medication for chest cold. But if you continue to have these symptoms, I usually prefer to use Levofloxacin (if you are not allergic to Levofloxacin).
Hope I have answer your query. Feel free to ask me further.
