I'm currently on tuberculosis treatment and taking Rcinex and Pyzina 1750. At night, I take Folfit. I'm wondering if it's okay to switch Folfit to FDson MP Forte since I've noticed they have the same chemical makeup. Can you let me know if that's a safe switch?

I'm having some trouble with my breathing and was wondering if it's okay to use a Duolin inhaler. Are there any home remedies you could suggest for a slight breathing issue?

Duolin inhaler is typically prescribed for conditions like asthma or COPD, and should only be used under a doctor's guidance. For mild breathing problems, you can try inhaling steam, staying hydrated, and using a humidifier. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.
