I'm dealing with chest congestion and some breathing issues all day, which is making me feel really anxious and panicky. It's pretty uncomfortable and concerning. Do you think I should be worried about anything major, and is there something specific I can do to ease this?

I'm currently on mlife tab which I take once a day and use seroflo as needed, especially when the weather changes. The only issue I have is breathlessness. I'm curious about how long I can continue using mlife and if there's any chance of completely curing this. If a cure isn't possible, what's the best approach to prevent it from coming back?

tablet mlife has little side-effects like nausea, vomiting. so you can take this tablet for long time till your symptoms are reduced
