Hey, I hope you can help me out here. I recently moved from Kolkata to Assam, and I'm having a tough time finding the medications I've been prescribed. I used to take Digihaler FB200, Cilapam LS, and Clonil 10 in Kolkata, but none of the pharmacies around here seem to stock them. Can you suggest any alternatives with the same ingredients? Im quite worried because I need to continue my treatment without interruption.

Can I nebulate with both Duolin and Budecort for post-COVID care? How would I go about using them together?

Duolin (Ipratropium and Salbutamol) and Budecort (Budesonide) can be used together for nebulization, as they complement each other in managing respiratory symptoms; for post-COVID care, use as directed by your doctor, typically 2-3 times a day, with a common regimen being Duolin 2.5ml + Budecort 1mg2ml, but adjust frequency and dosage based on individual symptoms and medical guidance.

I'm experiencing breathing problems for quite a while now, and I've been taking Montek LC tablets. Could you tell me if that's a good idea or if there's something else I should be doing? I really need some guidance on this.

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.

I'm really concerned about my dad. He had moderate COVID-19 and was hospitalized for five days, he's been discharged since January 1st, and all his reports were fine in mid-January when he was tested negative. It's been about a month and a half now, but he still has this mild dry cough. There are no other symptoms, though. How long can you have a cough after COVID, and should we think about getting him tested again? Any advice you have would be really great to hear.

some cases upto 12 weeks
