Hello thanks for posting the query

Green sputum suggest the infectious origin

you'll have to take antibiotic and anti histamines
In my practice i suggest Tab. Gramocef CV 1 tablet 2 times a day for 5 days and Tab. Montair LC 1 tablet 2 times a day for 5 days

These are available only on prescription, kindly consult nearest doctor and get them prescribed.

Any issue do follow up.
Take care.
