I'm really worried about my sister. She's been dealing with sleep apnea for like 10 years now, and it causes her to wake up suddenly while sleeping, though it only happens once every month or every couple of months. What kind of treatments are available for this, and how can we help her manage or sort this out?

Can I switch from using Formonide 200 Respicap to the Formonide 200 puff inhaler? I mainly deal with asthma issues during hot summers, but I'm usually fine for about 10 months of the year. Just wondering if making this switch might help or if I should stick to what I'm currently using. What's the difference and any pros or cons I should know about?

yes you can use it

I'm dealing with a viral flu and it's been about two days now. I visited my doctor today, and he mentioned I've got a bit of wheezing on top of everything. He suggested I take Pulmoclear tablets twice daily, once in the morning and once at night, for a week, alongside the antibiotics I'm already on. I've never taken Pulmoclear before and it's my first time experiencing wheezing. Is this medication safe for me? I'm pretty anxious about trying something new and don't know how my body will react or if it's going to work well for me. Could you give me some advice?
