Question 1

I've been dealing with this cough for about a week now. I saw a doctor nearby who recommended Gudcef CV 200, Ascoril LS Syrup, and Zincovut. I've been taking them for the last three days, but I'm still coughing. Could you guide me on what else I might do?

Question 2

I've been in the hospital for pneumonia and all my blood tests came back normal except for the ESR, which is a bit high. I saw my sputum test results on the doctor's phone, and it mentioned something about Haemophilus influenzae, which I looked up and found it's a type of bacteria causing pneumonia. They've got me on Taximax 1500, Pulmoclear, Zipod CV 200, Linowin, and some Mucolytic syrup called Ambrolite. I used to have a low-grade fever thats been gone for about 34 days now, but Im still dealing with this dry cough that just wont quit and gets worse a lot. Its been six days since treatment started, and Im still in the hospital. How much longer do you think it'll take for me to recover with the treatment Im on currently?

Question 3

I'm noticing that my heart rate has been climbing up to 95 over the past 23 days. Could my allergic bronchitis be playing a part in this? I'm really concerned and would love some insight on what might be causing this.

Accepted Answer

Increasing heart rate can be caused by various reasons, especially in individuals with allergic bronchitis. The combination of allergic bronchitis and an elevated heart rate could be due to increased inflammation and stress on the body. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation. To help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking **Montelukast** (Singulair) 10mg once daily for allergic bronchitis. Additionally, you can take **Propranolol** (Inderal) 10-20mg as needed to help lower your heart rate. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I'm a bit concerned because the patient who's on TB medication seems to have an issue. Every time they eat an apple, their cough gets worse. Could you suggest alternative foods that might not trigger coughing like apples do?
