Hello, Welcome to HCM Yes,surely it will relieve your cough and congestion. Amoxclav is a very good drug for the treatment of lower respiratory infection.But make sure that you take a full course of antibiotics without missing even one tablet. Otherwise it may of no use,when you get these symptoms the next time.Your body will develop resistance against this drug. Bricarex expectorant should be take only if you have lots of sputum production along with cough. Otherwise you can go for cough syrups meant for dry cough. Hope you are happy with the answer. Thank you
