Is Taking Taxim O Safe For Cough?

I m 20, I m having sore throat with fever.I went to the nearest clinic and the doctor prescribed me Amoxycillin & Potassium Clavulate 3 times a day for 5 days, Sinarest 1 tablet for 10 days and 30 B Complex for each day.After taking Amoxycillin etc... For 2 days my fever seems to have gone and so is running nose but I ve started coughing a lot. Couldn t even sleep last night. I m gargling for 2 days and have tried home remedies but it s getting bad.Also I have this problem of mucus going through my throat. Most of the time I try to get it out from my mouth but can t do that right now as my throat hurts a lot.Few months back I had the same problem sore throat and fever and after visiting 2-3 doctors and failing to get better I went to BLK hospital Delhi and the doctor told me I have throat infection and prescribed me Taxim-O with crocin and I started feeling better on the very first day.I don t trust local doctors as most of the time they are experimenting and don t even pay much attention to the patient.So, I m asking you Pros that whether I should continue what the doctor gave me or go for Taxim O. Thank you, Raghav

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.Amoxicillin clavulanic acid is more powerful antibiotic than Taxim O.So you can continue with your doctors treatment now.If it is bacterial this will be working.You can do gargling and steam inhalation.Take tea with lemon.Chicken soup with pepper also will be helpful.Take rest also.Wishing you better soon.
Let me know if you have any further query.
I find this answer helpful
