How long can I keep taking mlife tablets for my asthma without worrying about side effects? Ive been on them for the past 30 days and so far, so good, but Im just wondering if there's anything I should be cautious about.

I'm feeling worried because sometimes when I go for a walk, especially after I've covered about a kilometer, I start experiencing breathlessness. It's not every time, but it happens often enough to be concerning. I've done various tests like echo, ECG, TMT, chest X-ray, and all sorts of blood tests, but everything comes back normal. Why could this be happening?

I'm an asthma patient since I was 15 years old. It used to be under control, but in the past year, it's gotten worse. When I eat tomatoes, I start getting phlegm, cough, wheezing, and shortness of breath. My doctor told me to use one puff of Seroflo 100 daily. But what I'm really curious about is why I seem to have such quick mucus production. What kind of care should I be taking?

take tablet mucinac for 5 days

I've been feeling a bit worried lately. I got back to my hometown from Pune on March 11th and I've been really careful, keeping my distance from people and not going out since March 20th. But on the night of March 29th, around 11 PM, I started coughing. It's been a couple of days now and the cough isn't getting worse or better, just staying the same. Sometimes I feel like I need to take a deep breath, but it usually passes after a few seconds. Do you think I might have coronavirus?

There are many factors which can cause these symptoms , do RTPCR TEST to get confirm results of covid
