I have a cold, a continuous cough, and swollen nose corners, and I am currently taking Zathrin and Nicip. Are these the right medicines for my symptoms, or should I take something else?
Zathrin is an antibiotic (Azithromycin) and Nicip is a painkiller/anti-inflammatory (Nimesulide). Colds are usually viral, meaning antibiotics like Zathrin will not cure them unless a secondary bacterial infection is present. Nicip can help with pain and swelling around your nose corners, but it must be used cautiously. For a continuous cough, you may need a specific cough syrup (expectorant or suppressant) and steam inhalation. Applying petroleum jelly can soothe your swollen nose. Please consult a doctor before continuing these prescription medicines to ensure they are safe and necessary for you.
