Thanks for posting your query to health care magic. As I understand you are suffering from some kind of respiratory infection it could be of viral or bacterial in origin .
first you should go for sputum examination for gram staining and culture and sensitivity it will suggest you to decide weather it is viral or bacterial in origin and then you can take medication accordingly . presently you are taking medication are decongestant ,antihistamine and antipyretic ,these medicine will relieve your symptom but if infection is of bacterial in origin you require antibiotic according to sensitivity .
If it is a viral infection you should maintain a good nutritional and hygienic condition .
hope you are satisfied with my answer .feel free to contact me .
