I've been dealing with some lung issues and recently had surgery on my nose. I used to take Seretra 80mg for my asthma, but now my ENT doctor has prescribed Montek LC for allergies. Is it alright to take both Seretra 80mg and Montek LC at the same time? I'm just a bit worried about mixing the medications.

Only seretra is not enough for asthma. You will need to undergo pulmonary function test which is needed for the diagnosis as well as to assess severity of asthma based on which treatment can be started. Consult a pulmonologist for the same.

I'm really worried because despite following the treatment of Cepodem OD, Ivermectin, Doxycycline, Azithromycin, PanD, and a multivitamin my SPO2 levels are still below 80 and there's no sign of improvement. What could be going wrong and what should I do next?

I'm really worried about my mom's lymph nodes TB treatment. I went to two different private hospitals and got two kinds of prescriptions. One doctor told me to give her Akurit 4, two tablets a day, and the other suggested AKT 4. Her weight is 63 kg, and I've read that TB medicine doses depend on weight. When I looked into it, it seems like AKT 4 suits her weight better than Akurit 4, which seems too low. Now I'm confused about which one would be more effective. Should I consider going to a government hospital for DOTS treatment instead? Is DOTS better, or should we stick with private care? Any advice would be much appreciated.
