Question 1

I'm dealing with asthma and have been using Foracort 2 puffs on an SOS basis. I also take Omnitan H for my blood pressure every morning. A while back, my doctor suggested Montgress FX Montair LC when I have breathing issues. Recently, I got viral pneumonia and ended up in the hospital. I recovered but tested positive for Covid later on, though I didn't have any symptoms. After 14 days, my Covid test came back negative. Now, my doctor recommended Montair LC for 10 days and Foracort 200, 2 puffs twice daily. I'm kind of confused about which medicine I should stick to for my asthma in the long run. I usually get breathless when I try to climb stairs past the first floor. Can you help me figure this out?

Accepted Answer

continue foracort 200 2 puffs daily

Question 2

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's been coughing for about 45 months now. We've seen both general and ENT doctors, and they've done a chest, nose, and throat X-ray, but everything looked normal. The doctors just keep prescribing antibiotics and allergy meds. They help for a bit while she's on them, but as soon as she stops, the coughing starts up again. What else can we do or look into to figure out what's going on?

Accepted Answer

she might be allergic to some agent, kindly search for it and avoid it as much as possible

Question 3

I'm really worried about my wheezing problem that I've had since I was a 6-month-old baby. My parents took me to various consultants trying to fix it, but nothing really worked. The last doctor I saw was Dr. Raju at Raju hospitals. He ran some tests and suggested I use Cipla Inhalers. So, I've been using CIPLA ROTOCAPS Seroflo 100 for almost 15 years now. I'm scared that if these inhalers are ever unavailable, I won't make it past a week. Recently, my wheezing got really bad because I've been traveling a lot and the cold weather doesn't help, even though I'm based in Chennai. I'm just wondering, should I keep using Seroflo 100 rotocaps or consider other medicines to finally get rid of this wheezing for good?
