Thank you for your reply doctor!
You want me to stop all medicines(Allopathy, Homeopathy) and start your prescription. In past experience with my son, whenever I stoped Claritin then on 3rd day he will ended up having lot of stuffiness and fever with headache. Please guide me doctor. I am getting homeopathy medicines from India and I don't think they have 6X. Incase if I didn't find one with 6X, can I give 30?

Thanks for the reply doctor, I stopped other medicines except Claritin and started Pulsatilla 30. After 3 days of Pulsatilla course you want me to report how my son is doing? Or else you want me to start Kali Sulph 6X after 3 days course of pulsatilla and report after a week about his recovery?
Please let me know.

Doctor, I didn't understand how to use both medicines can you please clarify with me.
After completion of pulsatilla for 3 days I need to start Kali sulp6X or simultaneously with 30 mins gap? Please help mw in this doctor,
Thank you so much Doctor

How can I say thanks to you, I noticed lot of good results in my son after using Pulsatilla. Those are he is not getting too much greenish mucus from his nose and throat. His appetite increased and he is asking more and more to eat, he is so active as compared to earlier. But I misunderstood how to use the medicines. I completed Pulsatilla course for 3 days and now I started kali sulp6X. Is that okay to continue for 5-7days only kali sulph6X. Still his blowing his nose at home and at school. But at school its too much. When he goes outside he is getting too thick greenish mucus from his nose. When he is at home just normal. I don't know what is going on at school. Still I am giving Claritin with 30 mins gap with pulstilla. He is getting wet cough after starting pulsatilla.
Thank you for your help,
Lakshmi

Sir, after stopping pulsatilla he started symptoms back again. He is blowing too much in a day with thick green mucus and he is not eating again. His body is little hot and he is not breathing from his nose at all. Nose is so stuffy with lot of mucus. I stopped pulsatilla yesterday and gave kali sulph for 3 times. From yesterday onwards he is not eating at all. I noticed lot of benefit when he is in pulsatilla course on 2 day.
Please help me sir
