I'm a bit confused about the Foracort 400 mdi. Once I've started taking it, do I need to keep using it continuously? I'm not really clear on how long I'm supposed to stick with this dosage. Can you help explain how I should be managing it?

Foracort 400 MDI is typically used for managing asthma or COPD symptoms. If your doctor has prescribed it, it's important to follow the prescribed frequency, which could be one or more doses per day depending on the condition. If you're unsure about the timing or dosage, I recommend consulting your doctor to clarify the specific schedule based on your symptoms.

View allI'm dealing with a cold that originally started in my sinuses, but now it's moved down to my chest. I've got a lot of chest congestion and it's getting hard to breathe at times. I'm constantly coughing up phlegm, and sometimes I just can't seem to get relief from the coughing. What can I do to alleviate these symptoms?
I recommend taking an over-the-counter medication like Mucinex DM (guaifenesindextromethorphan) to help with chest congestion and to loosen mucus. The usual dosage is 1-2 tablets every 12 hours. Additionally, you can try using a humidifier to help with breathing and staying hydrated to help loosen the mucus. If symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.
