I'm currently going through treatment for tuberculosis and I'm taking rcinex and pyzina 1750 along with Folfit. I'm wondering if I can switch out Folfit for FDSON MP Forte since they seem to have the same composition. Am I missing something important here?

I'm really struggling with a severe cough and congestion, especially at night. It's gotten to the point where I'm coughing so much that I can't sleep. I've heard that Azithromycin tablets might help with this, but I'm not sure. Is Azithromycin a good option for these symptoms, or should I be looking into something else?

Yes you can use it no problem
