Common Acute Bronchitis Symptoms
- Persistent cough (dry or with mucus) that is progressively worsening after 5 days
- Chest tightness or burning
- Mild shortness of breath
- Mild Wheezing
Note:
Most cases of bronchitis begin as viral infections. We can treat bacterial bronchial infections, which are suggested by symptoms lasting longer than 5-10 days, or worsening symptoms after 5 days.
Emergency: If you have trouble breathing, a high fever (103°F+), or are coughing up blood, go to the ER immediately.
What if it's more than bronchitis?
Most bronchitis is viral - antibiotics won't help. But sometimes it's bacterial. Sometimes it's pneumonia.
Our system screens for red flags. If it's bacterial bronchitis, we'll prescribe. If it's viral, we'll tell you how to manage it.
If it's something more serious, we'll send you to the right care.
Common Bronchitis Medicines
Physicians may prescribe antibiotics for bacterial acute bronchitis, including:
- Zithromax (Azithromycin)
- Doxycycline
- Augmentin (Amoxicillin-Clavulanate)
- Cefdinir
- Cefprozil
- Cefixime
- Or other applicable options
Note: The reviewing physician will determine the appropriate medication based on your symptoms and history.

“I had a RAGING UTI on a Friday night, and with 30 minutes and $20 later, I had a diagnosis and a Rx in hand. I will always support my primary physician, but will also remember this when in a pinch and desperately needed. Earmark it for sure.””
Melissa W, Indiana
“I used it. Much easier than I thought. Quick response and had antibiotics sent to the pharmacy in under 5 minutes for sinusitis. Love that you can get answers quicker. Thank you, Dr. Stillson!”
Angela D, Indiana
“My adult son just used this for a sinus infection. It would have cost him $120 just to walk into his Dr office! Instead, he paid $20 and the cost of a prescription! A huge savings in both time and money!” [Note: Price changed 12/1/25]
Mary W, Indiana
“I used it. Very easy. Just great. Loved it. Had an ear infection. Got antibiotics. All within a couple of minutes. Can’t recommend it enough.”
