I'm dealing with severe cough, wheezing, and shortness of breath, and I have to keep taking duolin and budecort respules, but they only seem to work for about 4 hours before the symptoms start again. What should I do or try to get longer relief?

Duolin respules every 6th hourly and budesonide every 12th hourly is advised to the patient.

I'm finding it hard to breathe or feeling uneasy while breathing during the night, especially between 4 AM to 6 AM, and it's been going on for about four months. I also notice a wheezing sound when I breathe. What could be causing this, and how can I get some relief?

do chest x ray and pulmonary function test

I've been dealing with a cough that started a couple of months ago after I had a cold. I went to the clinic and got some medicine, but the cough stayed, and theres been this weird sound coming from my chest. I visited the doctor again about two weeks ago, and he mentioned it was an infection and gave me syrup and some pills, but it hasn't cleared up. After eating meals, I notice white mucus fills my chest, and I have to cough it up right after eating. Plus, when I play football for about an hour, the cough kicks in, and I start feeling really fatigued. What's going on here, and how can I get back to feeling healthy again?

Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutoml 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.

I've been struggling with breathing issues for the past five years and have been relying on an inhaler and Montair LC tablets. I'm starting to worry about how long Ill need to stay on this medication. Could you help me understand if there are long-term effects I should be concerned about, or if there are any other treatments I might explore?

It sounds like you've been managing a chronic respiratory issue for the past five years, using an inhaler and Montair LC tablets to help with symptoms. It's important to continue following your prescribed treatment plan, but if you're noticing any changes or worsening of symptoms, it may be worth discussing with your doctor to adjust your management strategy.
