I've just got my health check-up done, and while most things are in the normal range, my eosinophils count is a bit high at 11.6. I've started taking banocide tablets for the past couple of days. Lately, I've begun feeling a little uneasy when I breathe. I did an ECG and chest X-ray, and those came back normal. Do you think the banocide will help with the breathing issue, or should I be looking into other medication?

I'm 27 and have asthma. I'm taking deriphyllin tablets right now, and my husband and I are thinking about starting a family. I'm concerned about whether it's safe to continue this medication while trying to conceive. Could you advise me on this?

Asthma should not be treated with that drug.. inhalers are far better, lesser side effects, non addicting, safest in pregnancy, less dose needed,
