I'm a 53-year-old male and have been dealing with allergic asthma for quite some time now. I've been relying on Montac LC, which works well for me, but it's become quite expensive, nearly twice the price over the past year. Plus, nasal sprays and inhalers don't seem to help much, especially with the constant skin itching and sneezing. Is there an alternative tablet or medicine you could suggest?

I've been on ATT for pulmonary Kochs diagnosed 3 months ago. My initial chest X-ray looked fine, but the CT scan showed the infection. The Montox test was positive with a 20mm induration. For my latest review, I had a chest X-ray, and it showed prominent bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what this means? Also, I've been experiencing leg pain, especially in my knees and ankles. Is this something I should be worried about?
Do not panic it takes time complete the entire course of ATT and visit your Physician regularly for followup,consume balanced diet and stay hydrated.

I've been dealing with a dry cough for the past ten days and it's starting to really worry me. The doctors prescribed medications like Allegra M, Zerodol SP, Hetrazan, Medlor, and Azithromycin, but they don't seem to be working well. Plus, Ive been sweating excessively. Dry cough tends to be a common issue for me. Could you tell me if there's something else I should try or be concerned about?
