I'm a bit stressed out because I've been managing my bronchial asthma for 20 years using a regular puff of Forair 250 mg from Novacart, and it's worked really well for me. But I just found out they've stopped making it, and I'm starting to feel the symptoms coming back. Do you know of any alternatives I can try?

View allI'm really struggling with a severe cough and congestion, especially at night. It's gotten to the point where I'm coughing so much that I can't sleep. I've heard that Azithromycin tablets might help with this, but I'm not sure. Is Azithromycin a good option for these symptoms, or should I be looking into something else?
Yes you can use it no problem

My cough's been lingering ever since I had COVID three months ago. It comes with mucus and now isn't going away. I've tried antibiotics, anti-allergic meds, and syrups, which seemed to work while I was taking them, but the cough just keeps coming back once I stop. I've had tests like chest X-rays and RTPCRs, and everything looks fine, so that's a relief, but the cough is driving me nuts. I've been prescribed a bunch of medications like Augmentin, Levomac, and Montemac, but I don't see much improvement. I'm beginning to wonder if this is normal. Could it be some kind of long-term COVID effect or allergy issue? I'm really looking for some guidance on what steps to take next.
Yes,continue all the medications as advised by the physician.
