Question 1

Is there a better inhaler than Asthalin for managing asthma more effectively? Im looking for an alternative that might work better for me.

Accepted Answer

Only asthalin is used only in a very mild form of asthma. If the asthma is not controlled on asthalin only, you may have to use other inhalers. It is best that you show a chest physician who can examine and prescribe you appropriate inhaler.

Question 2

I have bronchial asthma and Ive been prescribed Foracort 400 to take daily. Is there any problem or side effect with using this medication regularly? Please let me know.

Accepted Answer

Foracort 400 is generally safe for managing bronchial asthma if used as prescribed by your doctor. Long-term use may cause side effects like oral thrush, hoarseness, or mild systemic effects, so regular check-ups are essential. Always rinse your mouth after use to minimize side effects.

Question 3

Is it okay to use Asthalin respules before playing any sport? I have asthma, and if I don't use them, my breathing becomes really heavy quickly. But when I do use the respules, I can manage to play through the whole game.

Accepted Answer

Yes, its okay to use Asthalin respules before playing sports if your doctor has advised it. It helps open up the airways, making it easier to breathe and preventing early fatigue. Just ensure you follow your doctors instructions on dosage and timing.

Question 4

Hi, Im using Duolin (2ml) and Budecort (3ml) for my nebulization. Can I mix them together in one round, or should I be using them separately in different rounds? Would appreciate some clarity on this.

Accepted Answer

You can mix Duolin (2ml) and Budecort (3ml) in one nebulization session, as they are commonly used together for combined bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory effects. Just ensure you follow your doctor's instructions and the prescribed dosage for your condition.

Question 5

Hi doctor, Ive been noticing pain in my left rib and chest area, especially when I take a deep breath or lie down on my left side. Its not constant, but its quite uncomfortable when it happens. Could you tell me what might be causing this?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you might be experiencing muscle strain, inflammation, or possibly something related to your ribs or lungs. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying issues like a rib injury or respiratory concerns.

Question 6

I've been having breathing problems for a while now, and I'm currently taking Montek LC tablet. Is it okay to keep using it, or should I be concerned? Please suggest what I should do.

Accepted Answer

Taking Montek LC (Montelukast and Levocetirizine) can help manage allergies and breathing issues caused by conditions like allergic rhinitis or mild asthma. However, long-term breathing problems should be evaluated by a doctor to rule out underlying conditions like asthma, COPD, or other respiratory disorders. Please consult a specialist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
