I have a persistent cough with phlegm and a mild fever. I have already taken paracetamol. What medicines can I take for quick relief, especially for my throat?
You may take a cough syrup with an expectorant, such as ambroxol or guaifenesin. You can also use simple linctus or honey and lemon in warm water, or try steam inhalation to soothe your throat and help loosen phlegm. Continue taking paracetamol for fever if needed. If symptoms persist beyond a few days or worsen, please consult your doctor for further evaluation.
