I'm really worried about my wheezing problem that I've had since I was a 6-month-old baby. My parents took me to various consultants trying to fix it, but nothing really worked. The last doctor I saw was Dr. Raju at Raju hospitals. He ran some tests and suggested I use Cipla Inhalers. So, I've been using CIPLA ROTOCAPS Seroflo 100 for almost 15 years now. I'm scared that if these inhalers are ever unavailable, I won't make it past a week. Recently, my wheezing got really bad because I've been traveling a lot and the cold weather doesn't help, even though I'm based in Chennai. I'm just wondering, should I keep using Seroflo 100 rotocaps or consider other medicines to finally get rid of this wheezing for good?
