I got my second dose of Covishield on September 1st, 2021, and I have a provisional diagnosis of COPD. My doctor recommended I use a Triohale inhaler and a Duolin inhaler. Is it safe for me to continue using these inhalers right now, or should I wait a bit before starting them?

I'm dealing with a really bad cough that's made my tongue red. I've been taking Rapitus three times a day, and while it's cut down the number of times I cough, it hasn't stopped it completely. I can't make it to a doctor right now and it seems to get worse at night. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?

Since Rapitus has not completely stopped the cough, I recommend trying Benadryl Cough Syrup 10ml at night before bed to help suppress the cough and improve your sleep. Additionally, you can take Benadryl Cough Syrup 10ml twice a day to further alleviate the cough during the day. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid irritants that may worsen your cough. If your symptoms persist, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

Is there any issue if I took my TB medicine in the evening instead of the morning? I ended up taking the dose at 5 o'clock when I was supposed to take it at 11 in the morning. I didn't skip it or anything. Could this be a problem?

Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.

I'm really worried and need some advice. Every morning when I gargle and cough, I end up vomiting, and there's blood in it. It's like clear sticky sputum with blood streaks. This mainly happens when I force myself to vomit after coughing once or twice, and I get a bloody taste in my throat. But if I don't cough and just vomit voluntarily on an empty stomach, there's no blood, just clear sticky mucus. Is this what they call pseudohemoptysis? Could this be happening because of trauma from coughing too hard? What should I do?

Sputum for AFB and microscopy,x-ray chest pa view, complete blood count,esr and C-reactive protein is advised to the patient.
