Dear Patient,

He can take syrup Dr Koff 2tbsp full three times a day.
Notice if there is any fever at night, if there is any fever or difficult in breathing he may benefit from taking a chest Xray.
Doctors can suggest to quit depending on the patient’s health, but its entirely his decision if he feels he isnt ready to quit as yet.
