Frequently facing LRTI

Question

Asked for Male, 27 Years

I am suffering from LRTI very frequently. Most of the time it will be controlled by paracetamol, zifi & levocet tablet within three days but now it is taking more time. I am surprised because doctor gave me antibiotics this time onclave 625 which prevent bacterial infection while cold caused by virus. But I do not have fever this time but previously whenver I had lrti i have fever too. I am really worried about this frequent LRTI issue. Can you suggest what will be the root cause?

Hello there. I can understand your concern. Zifi is also a antibiotic. Even if the cause is a viral one, antibiotic cover should be given to prevent any secondary bacterial infection. Kindly consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
