[|Human|] Im a 20 year old female. Ive had a cold for the past few days that has developed into a cough with chest congestion. I had been taking a cold multi-symptom to help and it worked fantastically.  It has acetaminophen 325mg/dextromethorphan 10mg/guaiifenesin 200mg/phenylephrine 5mg in each caplet. Youre supposed to take two. My mother got me to take triaminic with diphenhydramine 12.5/phenylephrine 5 an hour ago and it hasnt done a thing. Can I take a dose of the cold multisymptom, or should I wait the 4 hours?
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have cough & chest congestion which is due to upper respiratory tract infection/ lung infection. Need not worry. You should wait and then take dose as dose should be at proper timings. I would suggest you to take antibiotics such as Levofloxacin along with cough expectorants. You should take bucolic agent as well. You should consult a Pulmonologist and get evaluated and go for blood tests, throat swab culture and chest x-ray to find out exact diagnosis and start treatment. Furthermore, you should do warm saline gargles and avoid spicy and chilled foods. Furthermore, you should use mist humidifiers in room. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
