Advise for adults this cough and cold season.
Please take a look at https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/common-cold/ and https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/cough/ webpages for more info.
The symptoms are of a short duration and there are no symptoms of major concern. Discoloured sputum is common with viral infections and does not indicate a bacterial infection and is not a reason to prescribe antibiotics.
We appreciate that the cough is irritating, particularly at night but the treatment is conservative only with over the counter cough mixture as well as paracetamol which help the associated symptoms.
Information as to why antibiotics are not appropriate can be found on the following page: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/antibiotics/
