I recovered from COVID about three months ago and I'm wondering if it's okay for me to get the vaccine now. I've had a wheezing problem for the past decade and use Levolin Rotocaps every day. Could this be an issue with getting vaccinated? I'd really appreciate some advice.

I'm really worried about my grandfather. He's got bullous emphysema and has to use a nebulizer twice a day. In the morning, he uses Foracort respules and in the evening, Duolin respule. He's also on several tablets like Abflo, Cilacar, Mucinac 600, and a syrup called Ambrolite Levo. Lately, he's been having trouble breathing, especially when he walks or goes to the toilet. I'm wondering if Budecort respules might be a better option than Foracort. Could you give me some advice?

Budecort 200 rotacaps is advised to the patient.Rest continue all the medications.
