I have a concern regarding the febrex plus tablet. I've noticed that every time I take it, I end up with a lot of coughing, but it doesn't seem to bring up any mucus. I'm a bit puzzled about why this is happening. Could you give me some insights or guidance on this situation?

Febrex Plus contains a combination of ingredients that can help relieve cold and flu symptoms, but one of its components, like the decongestant or antihistamine, may sometimes cause dryness in the airways. This can lead to a dry cough, as the body attempts to clear irritants without producing mucus. If this continues, it may be worth discussing with your doctor to adjust the medication.

View allI'm a bit confused and worried because my Mantoux test showed a big reaction, 25x27mm, but my chest CT scan only suggests the possibility of tuberculosis. Ive got no symptomsno cough or fever or anything like that. Should I really start TB medication even though I feel perfectly fine? I'm just not sure if I actually have tuberculosis.
Continue ATT for 6 months duration is advised to the patient.

I'm having trouble with shortness of breath at night and it's been really bothering me. I visited a pulmonologist who had me do tests like ECG, CBP, PFT, and a chest X-ray, but everything came back normal. They prescribed Montair FX, Nexito Plus, and esomeprazole for a month, which made me feel better. But now, two months later, the symptoms have come back. My doctor said to keep taking Montair FX every night. What should I do? It's frustrating and I'm worried about what's happening.
yes continue the same medicine

I've been dealing with mediastinal lymph node TB and found out through EBUS FNAC and Genexpert. I'm currently on a 5-month treatment and have gained about 9 kg since starting it. Lately, I've noticed something odd with my cough. I seem to cough around 30 to 40 times a day, but it hits me in these dry cough attacks. It'll start with maybe 7 to 8 back-to-back coughs, then I clear my throat, and it stops. This happens like 3 to 4 times a day. There's no mucus, just throat clearing. But it's strange because it doesn't mess with my sleep or anything. Could this be an allergy or is it something I should be worried about?
allergic , take tab mucinac
