I'm really concerned about my dad. He's 63 and he's been dealing with asthma for a long time. He's currently using a Formoterol Fumarate and Budesonide Inhaler at 400 mg and taking Bilagra M tablets. I'm worried about whether it's safe for him to get the Covishield vaccine with these meds. Can you advise on whether it's okay for him to proceed with the vaccination?

View allI'm 23 and have had issues with bronchitis in the past. I used to rely on an Asthaline inhaler whenever I felt breathless. A few months ago, I went to a different doctor who gave me Formonide 200, and I found it worked way better than Asthaline. I haven't needed Asthaline since I started using Formonide, but yesterday I needed it again and it didn't give me long-term relief. I'm curious about why Asthaline isn't as effective anymore and if I should stick with Formonide or consider something else. What do you think?
It seems that your bronchitis symptoms may have worsened or changed over time. While **Formonide 200** (a steroid inhaler) may provide better long-term relief, the **Asthaline inhaler** (a bronchodilator) is used for immediate symptom relief but may not provide sustained effects. I recommend discussing your symptoms with your doctor, as a long-term management plan with the appropriate medication may be needed.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been having a heavy cough at night for almost three years now, about 34 months, and we've tried a bunch of tablets and syrups but nothing seems to work. Can you suggest any medicine that might actually help him get rid of the mucus?

I'm having trouble breathing properly and there's always this wheezing in my chest. When I walk, it's hard to catch my breath, and I'm also coughing a lot. I've tried taking azithromycin 500 once and using Dilosyn syrup. Can you suggest something for this constant wheezing? Are there any home remedies that might help? It's really frustrating.
