hello dear
thanks for your query at HCM
your taking medication correctly. it will take some time for respiratory problems to resolve.
till then avoid pollution and dust that might be aggrevating your problems.
take plenty of water that will relieve throat irritation.
if still problems are not controlled , any fever, difficulty in breathing, disturbing your daily activities visit doctor,
other wise no need , wait for some time
regards
