Your symptoms of throat irritation, mild cough, cold and body aches are most often caused by a viral infection, which usually resolves on its own with supportive care. Evoxil 250 (Amoxicillin) is an antibiotic and is not typically required unless a bacterial infection is confirmed by a doctor. Cheston Cold (Cetirizine, Paracetamol and Phenylephrine) may help relieve symptoms such as a runny nose, congestion and fever, but it should be used with caution and only for short-term relief. You may use paracetamol for body aches, get adequate rest, stay well hydrated, and consult a doctor if symptoms worsen or persist for more than a few days.
