Brief Answer:
doxophyllin will not help you.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for your question in HCM.
In my opinion doxophyllin is not needed in your case as you are not having wheezing.
It is bronchodilator, so helpful in relieving bronchospasm and wheezing.
In my opinion you should take mucolytic and expectorant. This will helpful in expectoration of Secretion as congestion is mostly due to secretions.
Moxikind is antibiotic and can be helpful in your case.
Febrex plus is anti pyratic and anti inflammatory. This will also indicated in your case.
I want to ask you few questions first.
1. Are you smoker?
2. What is your age?
3. Since how long you are having this symptoms?
Please reply me these answers, so than I can guide you better.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health.
