Suggest Treatment For Severe Cough And Vomiting

Hi. I have a severe chesty cough, and sometimes I cough to the point of vomiting. Even after a course of antibiotics I still have a fever. I am also very wheezy and coughing up mucous. I saw my GP and he s tested me for whooping cough and put me on prednisone and an inhaler, but I think I am getting worse. I feel like I can t get enough oxygen and like I am being strangled. I also have a runny nose and sore throat. Not sure if I should wait it out or visit the hospital

Hello,

As per your history, it may be due upper respiratory tract infection.

For that you can take tablet acetaminophen,tab ondensetron for vomiting. You may require antibiotics tablet Azithromycin after consultation.

In case of not getting relief, you may require complete hemogram, chest X Ray after consultation. Keep your self hydrated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
