Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 33-year-old female and I am pregnant. I have a cough and runny nose for four years. I am taking Loratadine only. Kindly suggest me an antibiotic. I am currently on tablet Loratadine, tablet Aldomet and multivitamins with folic acid, and tablet Aspirin. Please help.

Answered by Dr. Albana Greca

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It seems you are allergic taking Loratadine. You need to consult with your doctor. If bacterial lung infection is confirmed then you can start antibiotics. Apply Menthol Balm on the chest and shoulders to ease stiffness. Aerosol therapy can help together with multivitamins supplements.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
