I'm a 21-year-old girl and I've been prescribed a Levolin inhaler for my asthma treatment. I'm wondering how it compares to the Asthalin inhaler and what makes Levolin a better choice for me. Could you help explain the differences?

Levolin (levosalbutamol) inhaler is considered better than Asthalin (salbutamol) inhaler for some patients because levosalbutamol is the active R-enantiomer of salbutamol, which provides more targeted and effective bronchodilation with potentially fewer side effects, making it a preferred option for asthma management.

I've been experiencing a need to take long breaths frequently, mostly during the night after dinner, but sometimes in the morning and during the day too. It's not constant, but it has happened about 23 times over the last year and lasts for about 10 to 15 days before going away. I'm really concerned about this. I also have issues with sudden and continuous sneezing. What could be causing these symptoms?
it might be allergic rhinitis , take tablet montec lc whenever you are having this symptoms

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been battling COVID since the start of April, and while she was officially diagnosed on the 7th via an RTPCR test, she's had all sorts of symptoms like fever, loose motion, cold, dry cough, chest pain, and even some trouble breathing. We did a chest CT scan and an echo test before the RTPCR, and those showed moderate pneumonia with a CT score of 925. After getting treatment in the hospital with stuff like multivitamins, vitamin C, doxycycline, ceftriaxone, pantoprazole, and enoxaparin injections for 6-7 days, she seems better and she's been discharged. But now she's still having a bit of a cough and some loose motion, like 2-3 times a day. I'm really keen to know what kind of post-COVID treatment or tests she might need. What should we be careful about while she's recovering? Is there anything specific we should watch out for or any medications she should continue with?
continue multivitamin tablet for 15 days, no need of any tests
