I'm using Rotacap Formoterol Fumarate and Fluticasone propionate powder for inhalation, specifically Formoflo 250. I wasnt very regular with my Rotacap Budecort 100. But now that I've started with Formoflo 250, it feels like I'm getting more consistent with taking my meds. Do you think this change is beneficial or should I be aware of anything else?

My mom's been having these fits of coughing, and it seems like nothing we're doing is helping. I can actually hear her chest wheezing when she breathes, and it's really worrying. She's not on any medication right now, but we have no idea what might be causing these fits or what's triggering them. Can you give us some advice on what to do or what might be the issue?
