My wife is in her last week of the second trimester and she's been really under the weather with a bad cold and fever over the past couple of days. Initially, she was taking Calpol 650mg twice a day, Augmentin 625 three times a day, Asthakind DX syrup three times a day, and Teczine once a day. Thankfully, the fever's gone now, but the cold has gotten worse, and our physician thinks it might be pneumonia, so he sent us to a pulmonologist. Today, the pulmonologist prescribed Mox 500mg twice a day, Allegra M once a day, Calpol 500mg twice a day, and AB Phylline capsules twice a day. I'm really concerned and wondering if it's safe for her to take AB Phylline and Allegra M during pregnancy. Could you shed some light on this for us?

I'm dealing with some pretty nasty seasonal bronchitis it's like I can't catch my breath, my chest feels heavy, and there's this annoying wheezing sound. They did an asthma test and said I don't have it, but the doctor gave me doxycycline 400mg and montelukast. Thing is, it's not really helping. What else can I try?

start ciprofloxacin for 5days
