How to cough with a runny nose and cold

When cold and runny nose is accompanied by cough, patients should pay attention to rest, drink more water and avoid getting cold again. Some patients with mild symptoms can be relieved by themselves after 2-3 days of observation and treatment, and can be cured by themselves. However, if the clinical symptoms are heavy, patients can take oral medication for symptomatic treatment at this time, for example, patients with obvious cough can take oral treatment such as compound methonamine capsule, compound licorice tablet and compound forcodine oral solution. For the symptom of runny nose, patients can take oral cold medications, such as Shuanghuanglian granules, Lianhua Qingfei capsule, Banlangen granules, etc. If the patient has previous allergic rhinitis, which aggravates the patient’s symptoms of runny nose, the patient can take oral treatment such as antihistamine or leukotriene regulator, such as the treatment of ketotifen or montelukast sodium. Through the above-mentioned comprehensive treatment, the symptoms of cold can mostly be gradually relieved. However, it should be noted that if the patient has a secondary bacterial infection, the patient also needs to take oral antibiotic anti-infection treatment.
