I'm really having trouble with deep breathing and I've been coughing up brown mucus pretty often. How normal is this supposed to be? It's been over a month on medication but I'm not seeing much improvement. How long does something like this usually take to get better?

I'm having trouble with breathing and have been using Seroflo but recently switched to Foromonide Rotocap. Can you help me understand how these two differ? I'm curious if there are specific advantages or anything important I should know about using Formonide compared to Seroflo.
Seroflo (Salmeterol + Fluticasone) and Formonide (Formoterol + Budesonide) are both combination inhalers that help manage asthma and COPD symptoms. They both contain a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) and a corticosteroid. Formonide might act faster due to the Formoterol but both medications provide long-term relief when used regularly
