Should I take a cough syrup or another medicine for a cough that has lasted for two weeks and has not improved with Vicks and steam?

Asked by Male, 22 · 12 days ago

Since steam inhalation and Vicks haven't provided relief, it is best to consult a healthcare professional rather than starting a new cough syrup. A doctor can listen to your lungs and determine if the cough is due to an infection, allergies, or post-nasal drip. In the meantime, try to stay well-hydrated with warm fluids and rest as much as possible.
