Suffer From Itching In The Nose, Sneezing And Cold. On Medication For Nasal Infection. How Long Should I Take Medication?
Hi,
I was suffering from Cold includes continuous itching in nose, sneezing, wet cough. It was there from 2 years. Recently when I visited ENT specialist...he confirmed it as Nasal infection and prescribed Podox and Vozet. The course is for 30 days. The problem got controlled a lot after using these tablets. But it started again when I stopped medication. My question is...Can I continue the same tablets again?? If yes...till when?
Thanks in advance

hello
welcome to health care magic
You have said that you are suffering from itchiness sneezing and cough for the past 2 years.. i think its an allergic disorder..
You are supposed to use leucotriene receptor antagonists along with anti allergic medication to control your allergy..if you are also suffering from running nose you need to use steroid nasal spray..
consult chest physician,he/she will examine you and tell the medications and more suggestions..
hope you understand my suggestion..
thank you
