Hello Doctor
I have this mild cold from 2 weeks but have not taken any medicines. I experience nose block in the nights but otherwise it isn't there.
Occasional sneezing is there but no cough or cold.
I have gastric or acidity problems. I take gelusil for it and i am fine after that. I meant to say no cough or fever or sore throat.
Please let me know if u need any more details.
Thanks,

Advised cetrizine.
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for your information.
For cold:
I suggest you cetrizine 5 mg once a day for 5 days.
Nasoclear nasal saline drops. instill 2 drops on each nostril 4-6 times a day and before bed.
Steam inhalation twice a day.
Synptoms that something accumulate in throat, sometimes in the morning and vomition sensation all suggest acid reflux.
I suggest you proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole 40 mg 30 minutes before breakfast on empty stomach for 2 weeks.
You can take gelusil as well.
If you have any queries I will be happy to help you.
Thank you.
