I've had a cough and cold for five days, taking Allegra and Azax 500 without improvement.

If your cough and cold haven't improved after five days on Allegra and Azax 500, it may be viral or allergic rather than bacterial. Stop antibiotics without medical advice and see a doctor for evaluation and possible inhaler or anti-allergy treatment.

I'm sorry to hear that your cough and cold have persisted for five days despite taking Allegra and Azax 500. Allegra is an antihistamine often used for allergy symptoms, while Azax 250 (an antibiotic) is intended to treat bacterial infections, not viral infections like the common cold or flu.

Since your symptoms have not improved, it’s possible that your illness may be viral or that the antibiotic is not the appropriate treatment for your condition. Continuing antibiotics unnecessarily can lead to side effects and antibiotic resistance.

What you can do:

  • Monitor your symptoms closely, especially if you develop high fever, difficulty breathing, chest pain, or worsening symptoms.
  • Use supportive care such as rest, hydration, and over-the-counter remedies for symptom relief.
  • Avoid self-medicating further with antibiotics without medical advice.

Important: Please consult a general physician or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist to evaluate your condition properly. They can determine if further investigations or a different treatment approach is needed.

If you experience severe symptoms like difficulty breathing or chest pain, seek emergency medical care immediately.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.Please tell me your age and gender.
