I'm hearing a whistling sound when I breathe out, especially in the mornings. Coughing happens too, but it's pretty rare. I've been taking monticope and using an aerocort inhaler for relief when the issues kick in. Can you help me understand why this is happening and if there's anything else I should be doing about it?

  2. Current Treatment
    a. Monticope (montelukast and levocetirizine) helps with allergic symptoms.
    b. Aerocort inhaler (beclomethasone and formoterol) provides relief by reducing inflammation and opening airways.
