Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Since you are diagnosed with URI and not improving try to follow these steps simultaneously. Only antibiotic will not work. You have to follow these simultaneously. 1. Avoid oily and spicy food. 2.  Chat Doctor.  3. Warm water gargles 5 - 6 times a day. 4. Start Caroline group of antibiotic. 5. Start antihistamine and anti-inflammatory
