He was earlier prescribed Ambrolite S for cough , however he did not like the taste and threw up thrice yesterday post meals and hence today he has been prescribed Maxtra. Is this an antibiotic?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Continue him crocin drops and nasoclear drops for nasal blockade.
Maxtra is not an antibiotic. It contains drugs which fall in category of anti-histaminics. Those drugs help to dry out nasal secretions and help to relieve cold.
Give him steam inhalations which also helps.
I hope I have cleared your doubt. In case of further clarification, feel free to revert back.
Best regards,
Dr. Neelam.
