I am diabetic since 2004 having hypertension since 2008. My last tests on 28.12.19 showed the following results: glucose fasting 116, p.p 126, blood urea nitrogen 9, creatinine 0.8,cholesterol 180, triglycerides 134, hdl cholesterol 43, direct ldl cholesterol 119, non hdl cholesterol 137, chol/hdl ratio 4.2,ldl/hdl ratio 2.8,vldl 26.8,hba1c 7.6,mean glucose plasma 171.4. I am taking the following medicines: glimisave m2=1 zitamet 20+500=1, ln bloc 5=1 and half natrilix sr=1 (added just 6 months back) multivitamin=1 for the last 2 and half months I am having dry cough and after taking amoxicillin for 10 days and cetrizine it was cured but after that but the dry cough returned after a gap of 20 days. Feeling liquid sinus discharge at the back of throat. Since natrilix sr was added around 6 months back I have some doubt whether it or any other above medicine can cause side effect of dry cough. I am allergic to sulpha medicines. Please advise whether the medicines need review.
