I'm 28 and have been using Budamate 200 respules for about four months now. I haven't had any attacks during this time and stopped taking it a week ago without any problems. I'm just curious about whether I should stop taking it entirely or if I should continue. If I should keep taking it, how much longer should I be on this medication?

I've been dealing with a cough on and off for about three months now. It always seems to go away when I take antibiotics, but as soon as I have something cold, the cough comes right back with wheezing. I also had an X-ray, and it showed some prominent bronchovascular findings. I'm a 30-year-old female, and I'm starting to get really worried about what's going on. What should I do?
