I'm having some breathing issues at night and it's getting worrisome. My family doc mentioned Montair LC and Fluticone FT which help when I use them, but it seems like this problem is becoming constant. Do you have any advice or ideas on what might be happening?

View allI've been dealing with a cough for about two weeks now. It kicked off as a loose and pretty bad one, but lately, it's turned into a dry cough. I notice it's really severe when I take deep breaths. Can you suggest what might be going on or what I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a persistent cough that has transitioned from a productive (loose) cough to a dry cough. For your dry cough, you can try taking **Dextromethorphan** (such as Robitussin DM) at a dosage of 10-20 mg every 4 hours as needed to suppress the cough reflex. Additionally, you can use a throat lozenge with **Benzocaine** to help soothe your throat irritation. Make sure to stay hydrated and consider using a humidifier to add moisture to the air, which can help alleviate your cough symptoms. If your cough persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

My mom was treated for COVID at Apollo, and we asked the doctor to discharge her while she was still on 2 liters of oxygen. After a few days at home, I managed to reduce the oxygen to 1 liter, but now I'm noticing something concerning. Her SPO2 levels are showing around 92-93, and her pulse rate is between 105-120. Could you give me some advice about this situation? It has me a bit worried.
do some spirometry , your saturation might improve

I'm a bit confused about the medication my doctor prescribed. They've asked us to take INH 150, Rcinex 450, and Ethambutol 400. But here's the thing, Rcinex already contains 300mg of isoniazid. Should we be adjusting the dosage or is there something I'm missing here? It's just a bit worrying, and I want to make sure we're doing the right thing.
revise the dosage again
