Suggest Treatment For Chronic Sinusitis

default
Posted on Wed, 21 Jun 2017
Question: Yes, I have a head cold and I usually use XXXXXXX Seltzer Plus for colds.
This time the AlkaSeltzer isn't working so I bought some Allegra. My question: Is it safe to take both product as long as I stager the doses by a couple of hours. I can't find any warning on either products enclosed statement.
Thanks

Brief Answer:
Chronic sinusitis

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcare Magic and thanks for putting up the query
You seem to be having chronic sinusitis. All anticold medicines on long run can be harmful. They have side effects on blood pressure and concentrating ability.
Even if sinusitis is not accurately treated, it can be complicated.
My advise is you should get a x-ray paranasal sinuses done.
Please tell me do you have any nasal blockage?
Any history of difficulty in breathing, excessive sneezing?
Follow up with the required information so that I can suggest you better.

Thanks and regards
