I'm having some breathing problems at night with shortness of breath. My doctor checked me over and recommended I take the tablet GLEMONTA and said I should take it at night. I'm wondering, is it okay if I take it before dinner instead?

I'm really worried about my boyfriendhe's been experiencing shortness of breath almost every day, and now his sleep is getting disrupted by this choking cough and cold. He even catches a cold easily in the summer. It's been really rough for the past 23 days, and on top of that, he has indigestion. What can I do to help him or any advice on how we should handle this situation?

Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.

I've been told to take Montek LC for a few months. Is it okay if I have a drink during this time? Any side effects I should be worried about?
