HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate this, if this is the productive cough then possibility of infection need to be ruled out or antibiotic can be tried on precaution basis and best option would be "Tab Azithromycin 500 mg" once in day for three days, and along with this "Tab Loratadine with Pseudoephedrine" three times in day, this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care.
