Viral fever.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

It looks like you are having a viral fever. The medications you have taken are correct. You can take tab. Dolo 650 mg for fever, maximum 4 times a day. You can cetrizine once in the night for runny nose. Drink lots of warm water and soups. Drink warm lemon juice with 1 tsp of honey for 1 week to soothe throat and build immunity.

In case of persistent symptoms you can take an antibiotic Tab. Azee 500 mg once a day for 3 days after food.

I hope this answered your query.
