I've just started taking Akurit 4 tablets for mild TB, and I've noticed that my urine has turned orange since this morning. Is this something that usually happens, or should I be really concerned about it? I'm feeling a bit anxious and would love to get some clarity on this.

I'm dealing with a dry cough and just found out my blood SGPT level is 60.5. I'm really worried and wondering if there's any link between this and bronchovascular lung disease. What should I be aware of?

Your SGPT level of 60.5 indicates mild liver stress, which might be unrelated to your dry cough. However, a persistent dry cough can sometimes hint at bronchovascular issues or lung conditions, which could indirectly affect overall health. It's best to consult a doctor for a detailed evaluation and management plan.

I'm a bit worried about using an inhaler. If someone uses it once or occasionally, do they end up needing it regularly? I've never used an inhaler before. Usually, my cough stops after I have some tea or take certain medicines, but recently those aren't working. Would it be a good idea to start using an inhaler, or is there a chance it could make my body depend on it?
