I'm wondering how to take Mucinac 600. The doctor mentioned dissolving it in water, but I forgot to ask if I should use normal or hot water. Also, what exactly does it help with?

Question

Why are coughs worse at night?

Question

I've been dealing with a really intense dry cough ever since the second wave of COVID. It's mostly at night and doesn't really respond to regular cough meds. My doctor put me on Foracort 200 rotacaps, and it works almost immediately, which is great. But I'm still having episodes of this cough almost every night, and I keep reaching for the rotacaps. I'm kind of worried... is it okay to keep using Foracort 200 like this? And are there any potential side effects if I use it long-term?
