Brief Answer:
Azithromycin is an antibiotic

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

Azithromycin is an antibiotic
Montul L thins sputum/mucous
Pradni 10 seems to be prednisone, a steroid. It should not be taken unnecessarily and for more than few days.
dairyphyllin is meant to dilate windpipe and facilitate breathing.
Did these medicines improve your symptoms?

Since its on right side it could be coming from lungs. It could also have other causes. So please answer all questions so that I can narrow the diagnosis.

Brief Answer:
Seems something related to your esophagus and stomach

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

I have carefully analysed all your symptoms.
Can you also describe your stomach upset. Is it acidity or diarhea, vomiting etc.

From your current symptoms it seems to be related to some disorder of your foodpipe. If your stomach upset means acidity, then it could be gastro-esophageal reflux disease, esophagitis, esopahgeal spasm. In this case all other medicines will be discontinued and antacids like omeprazole will be started.

If your stomach upset means diarhea, then it is some virus. In this case also all the medicines except cetirizine and paracetamol will be unnecessary.
