Question 1

I'm dealing with chest congestion and a wet cough that's been going on for over three months now. An X-ray showed I have left hilar lymphadenopathy. I tried taking Cefpodoxime, 200 mg twice a day, but it didn't help. Now I'm on Montelukast and Doxofylline tablets along with Foracort Rotacaps inhalation therapy, but I'm still not seeing any clear improvement. Any ideas on what I should do next?
