Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
I have gone through the drugs you have with you.
Cefakind, megaclav and clavum are antibiotics. Megaclav and clavum are similar, amoxicillin plus clavulinic acid.
For whooping cough, Cefakind 250 will be good. So take this drug twice daily after food for 5 days.
Along with this, take relent twice daily after food for 5 days.
Relent is having antihistamine and anti inflammatory drugs. So it will reduce your coughing.
Also drink plenty of water, do warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
