I'm someone who's been dealing with wheezing for over 20 years now. It's not extremely serious, but I've been using inhalers occasionally. I'm really hoping to stop relying on them. I haven't faced a major attack in a couple of years, just minor discomforts where the inhaler comes in handy. Is there a way I can stop using inhalers for good? I've tried ayurveda before, but it didn't quite work and I ended up stopping it. What else can I do?

I'm really struggling with a severe cough and congestion, especially at night. It's gotten to the point where I'm coughing so much that I can't sleep. I've heard that Azithromycin tablets might help with this, but I'm not sure. Is Azithromycin a good option for these symptoms, or should I be looking into something else?

Yes you can use it no problem
