Is Sudafed Suggested To Combat Sinus Congestion, Chest Congestion And Sore Throats?

Hello my name is Robert. My wife Courtney has been suffering sinus congestion, sore throat, chest congestion, ear aches and lots of coughing for about three days. She has been taking antibiotics, Sudafed, and over the counter cough medicine. She is still feeling pretty bad. Any suggestions?

Hello,

Sudafed contains pseudoephedrine to combat sinus congestion.

In our clinic, we recommend additional support of inhalation of boiled water vapors with added tincture benzoin and gargles with salted lukewarm water added peppermint oil 3 times a day.

You may require a change in antibiotic or doctor visit as per the progress.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
