I'm experiencing a bit of breathing discomfort after taking Ambrolite. I'm also on Ursocol. Could there be a connection between these medications? Should I be concerned about this side effect?

The breathing discomfort after taking Ambrolite (ambroxol) along with Ursocol (ursodeoxycholic acid) may be due to the expectorant properties of Ambrolite, which can temporarily cause throat irritation or coughing

View allMy grandfather had covid pneumonia and his HRCT score was 1225. He was discharged about 40 days ago, but for the past 56 days, his oxygen level drops to 92-93 while he's asleep and goes back up to 96-97 once he's awake. Is this something dangerous? What can we do to help him? Everything else looks fine except his D-dimer, which is high at 1.06 when it should be below 0.5, although his CRP is normal. Can you guide us on what steps to take?
It's not uncommon for oxygen levels to fluctuate slightly during sleep, especially after recovering from COVID-19 pneumonia. However, if the oxygen level drops below 90%, it could indicate a need for further monitoring. The elevated D-dimer suggests some ongoing inflammation or clotting risk, so its important to keep in touch with your healthcare provider to assess if further tests or treatments are needed.

My husband has had this really stubborn dry cough for over a year now, and it seems worst in the early morning, especially when he's using the washroom. I'm really curious what's causing this and if there's something specific we should be doing or looking into? It's been going on for so long, and I'm a bit worried.

Having this dry cough for over a week now and I remember that Dr. Srinath Karthick recommended LUPITUS syrup and BUDATE 200 Lupihaler capsules a year back. I still have some of the syrup and started taking it again, but it seems I really need those BUDATE 200 capsules to fully get better. The problem is they're not available in the market now. Could you suggest any alternative medicine I could try? I'm really hoping to kick this cough soon!
Budesonide 200mcg capsules is advised to the patient whenever episodes of breathing difficulty.
