I'm really concerned about my mom. She's dealing with ILD, and her cardiologist prescribed Existing AV 75 to help manage her high blood pressure. I'm worried about how this might affect her lungs. Is it safe for her to take this medication? Would love some insight on this.

So, my younger sister has been dealing with allergies for about 10 years now. Her doctor recommended Budecort 100 mg, and she's been taking one puff a day. Normally, she's fine for months, but then suddenly, she starts to get a cold, dry throat, and sometimes a cough, and breathing becomes really hard for her. We end up needing to use a nebulizer in the hospital to get things under control. Do you think there's any permanent solution to stop this from happening?

I've been dealing with walking pneumonia quite a bit; it happens at least three times every year and has been like that for around eight years now. It seems to be getting worse each time and lasts longer too. I'm really worried it might be something serious like lung cancer, especially since Ive been smoking cigarettes and was exposed to a lot of secondhand smoke growing up. Is it normal to get walking pneumonia this frequently, or should I be talking to a professional about it?

I'm a 53-year-old male and have been dealing with allergic asthma for quite some time now. I've been relying on Montac LC, which works well for me, but it's become quite expensive, nearly twice the price over the past year. Plus, nasal sprays and inhalers don't seem to help much, especially with the constant skin itching and sneezing. Is there an alternative tablet or medicine you could suggest?
