I always have cough and blocks in my nose. Its really difficult to sleep with the same. I also heard that using otrivin is not so good. Can you please help?

Yes, regular use of otrivin is not advisable. Kindly use a humidifier and sleep on side instead of your back.

Hello there, for cough, take 2-2 teaspoonful of pranacharya kasantak by mixing it in hot water twice daily. Sitopaladi, praval and tankan bhasm churna taken with honey can also bring relief. Consume this 3 to 4 times a day for relief from dry cough; you can also drink tea with basil leaves or add ginger and black pepper in it. Salted hot water gargling also helps. And stay away from cold drinks and don't take milk when having cough.
