Brief Answer:
anti histamine drug

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX

Greetings from health care magic!!! I am Dr Thakker and shall be answering your question.

I can certainly understand your concern for severe cold given that you have to travel tomorrow.

Can you please provide me with some more clinical information:

Do you have fever? Cough with expectoration? Joint pain? Rash?

Do you have a history of asthma or allergies in the past?

This information will help me to reach the right diagnosis.

I would recommend an antihistamine like one tablet Cetrizine for your severe cold for my patients.

I hope this helps you out. If you have any more questions, please do not hesitate to write back to me.

Yours sincerely,
Dr Thakker.
