Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You are mostly having viral upper respiratory tract infection (URTI).
Diarrhoea I'd also due to viral infection.
Your drugs are appropriate, but along with drugs, follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.
1. Drink plenty of fluids orally and keep yourself hydrated.
2. Avoid oily and spicy food. Avoid hard to chew food.
3. Do warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.
Usual time for recovery is 1-2 weeks. So continue drugs and above mentioned things for 1-2 weeks. You will definitely improve.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
