Hello and thank you for asking in HCM.
According to the history you're under treatment for pneumonia.
In my opinion this is the right treatment you are treating for.
The mucolitic you have add can help you with the secretions to be more watery .
Aftes some time the cough will be fewer.
I don't think i would add anything else but i would do a chest X Ray for confirming the pneumonia.
Wish you good health
