I'm dealing with asthma and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take something like Alprazolam (Alp). Am I capable of managing this? Would you advise against it? I'm a bit worried and really need some guidance on this.

I've got asthma and just bought a new tablet called Monticope Montelukast with levocetirizine dihydrochloride, but I've been using Levozing Lm Montelukast with levocetirizine hydrochloride for a while now. I'm a bit confused about the difference between dihydrochloride and hydrochloride. Does it make a difference, and is it safe to switch to this new tablet?

I've suddenly developed a cough with some white mucus, and I've noticed a small drop of blood too, which has never happened to me before. I'm a bit worried since I have young kids, a 4-year-old, and I'm wondering what kind of treatment I should be considering. Can you please advise on what steps to take next?
