I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a persistent cough and my asthma isn't getting any better. Do you think it's safe for me to take L hist mont along with amoxicillin 500? I'm worried about how these might interact.

If you have asthma and are experiencing a cough, it's important to ensure that your asthma is well-managed. L-Hist-Mont (a combination of antihistamine and montelukast) can help with allergic symptoms and asthma, while amoxicillin is used for bacterial infections. If your cough is due to an infection, the amoxicillin may be helpful, but its best to consult your doctor to confirm the cause and ensure the medications are appropriate for your condition.

I'm wondering if it's okay to take AB Phylline SR tablets instead of the AB Phylline N tablets that my doctor recommended for my continuous and excessive mucus issue. I can't seem to find the N tablets in my area, just the SR ones. Could you let me know if it's alright to make this switch?

It's best to follow your doctor's prescription, as there may be specific reasons for recommending AB Phylline N. However, if AB Phylline SR is the only option available, I would advise consulting your doctor or pharmacist before switching to ensure it's suitable for your condition.

I had tuberculosis back in April 2016 and took medication for 9 months, including Streptomycin 1gm, Combutol 800, and Rcin 450, until February 15. Now I've got a bit of a cough and some pain again. Do you think it might be TB again? And how likely is it to be MDR-TB if it is? I'm really worried about this.
