Will Taking Loratadine,Cephalexin And Promethazine-DM Be Safe For Bronchitis?
I've had bronchitis for 2 weeks & was prescribed Loratadine, Cephalexin & Promethazine-DM. The mucus I cough up is almost clear & I'm coughing less & starting to feel better. Am I still contagious & when is it safe to visit my quadriplegic brother again?

Hello,
Welcome yo HCM,
As you had symptoms of bronchitis for which your doctor has prescribed medications like antibiotic and antihistamines after which your symptoms has come down.
As your symptoms have come down, by this time you would be non infectious and you will not be communicating the disease to your brother.
I would suggest you to follow personal protection measures like taking protective measures while coughing, sneezing and talking.
Thank you.
