What is the best medicine for upper respiratory tract infections

Upper respiratory tract infections can be treated with antipyretic and analgesic drugs such as ibuprofen depending on the symptoms, and antibiotics such as amoxicillin and cephalosporin can be used if they are caused by bacterial infections. Acute upper respiratory tract infection is an acute inflammation of the nasal cavity, pharynx or larynx, mainly caused by viruses, and to a lesser extent by bacteria. Medication for upper respiratory tract infections is mainly symptomatic. If there are fever and headache symptoms, you can use antipyretic and analgesic drugs such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen, and also use Chinese medicines such as Lianhua Qingdian capsule and cold punch. If the symptoms of sneezing and runny nose are more severe, antihistamines such as loratadine can be used. If the infection is caused by a virus, there is no specific antiviral drug, and it mainly relies on the recovery of one’s own immunity. If you find that there is coughing up pus sputum, tonsils are swollen and congested, blood tests show elevated white blood cells, suggesting that there is a bacterial infection, you can use penicillin such as amoxicillin, cephalosporins and other anti-infective drugs. The above drugs should be used under the guidance of a doctor. In addition to the use of drugs, but also pay attention to drink more water, more rest, improve their own resistance.
