I'm really worried about my friend who has sarcoidosis and bronchial asthma; the doctor recommended an inhaler and the medicine ecosprin AV75. I'm concerned about the possible side effects of ecosprin AV75. Also, how long should my friend keep taking it? Is it something they should continue indefinitely or stop at some point?

Ecosprin AV 75 is a combination medication containing Aspirin and Atorvastatin. It is commonly used to prevent heart attacks and strokes in patients with cardiovascular disease. Some common side effects of Ecosprin AV 75 include stomach upset, heartburn, dizziness, and easy bruising. In rare cases, it can also cause more serious side effects such as stomach bleeding or liver problems. The duration of Ecosprin AV 75 treatment should be determined by your friend's doctor based on their individual medical condition. It is important to follow the doctor's instructions regarding when to stop or continue the medication. In general, Ecosprin AV 75 is usually taken long-term to prevent cardiovascular events, but the duration may vary depending on the specific situation. It is important not to stop taking Ecosprin AV 75 without consulting the doctor first, as sudden discontinuation can increase the risk of heart attack or stroke.

View allI'm about seven weeks pregnant and I've been having this on and off wheezing and coughing at night for the past few weeks. Lately, it's been happening more often and it's really messing with my sleep. Sometimes I even struggle to breathe. I saw a physician who prescribed me Reswas, Cetrizine, and Drez gargle, but I've been on them for three days now, and it's not helping. What's going on? Should I be worried?

Is it possible for me to completely get rid of wheezing if I stick to a strict medication plan, diet, and exercise within a year? I've been eager to join marine engineering since I was a kid, and I really need to get myself fully prepared for it. I've been dealing with wheezing for the past couple of years, mostly in the mornings when I wake up, but sometimes it happens at other times too. I'm set to join a marine college next year after finishing my BTech, and I need to be in top-notch medical condition. I'm thinking about starting swimming and running every day with the right medical advice and proper diet. Do you think this could help me get fit enough, without any wheezing issues, in a year's time?

I've been having chest pain since my ATT treatment back in 2016, especially when I breathe in. It gets worse with cold weather, drinking cold water, or after a cold shower, even during summer. I've told my doctor, but my reports have always shown normal results. In 2020, I saw a pulmonary doctor who found Multiple Centrilobular Nodular Opacities in the basal segment of my right lower lobe and bilateral axillary lymphadenopathy. They thought it might be TB and did a bronchoscopy, which came back negative. I've been using the inhaler Formoflo 250, but the pain is still there. This winter was rough with the pain getting worse, and I started having skin issues and hair loss. I'm worried because I'm ANA positive 4, but my CT thorax, X-ray, and ECG were normal, though I do have hypothyroid and low hemoglobin. My cough is mostly dry and orange, with a little blood occasionally. I'm currently taking Paracetamol 650 for fever due to the chest pain. What could be causing all of these symptoms, and what should I do next?
take a painkiller, tablet zerodol
