I'm wondering how long it usually takes for my IGE levels to go down. I've been on Spirodin 650 and Montemac FX, but I'm still having trouble with my breathing. When should I start feeling like I did before?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Spirodin 650 is a brand name for Montelukast, which is used to treat asthma and allergic rhinitis. Montemac FX is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Fexofenadine, used for allergic conditions. If you are experiencing breathing problems while taking these medications, it is important to consult your doctor immediately. They may need to adjust your dosage or switch to a different medication to alleviate your symptoms. Monitoring your IGE levels is also important, but the time it takes for them to decrease can vary depending on the individual and the underlying condition. Regular follow-up with your doctor is recommended to track your progress.

I'm having some trouble breathing, and I got my blood test results back showing my eosinophils are at 7.3. I had a chest X-ray done too, but it came back normal. Could the eosinophil levels be related to my breathing issues even though the X-ray didn't show anything? What does this mean for my health?
Your eosinophil count of 7.3% indicates a high level, which could be related to allergies, asthma, or parasitic infections. Since your chest X-ray is normal, it is less likely to be a serious lung issue. I recommend taking a short course of an antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with any allergic reactions causing your breathing trouble. Additionally, you can use an inhaler like Salbutamol 100mcg for quick relief if needed. If symptoms persist, follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with asthma and have been using Foracort 2 puffs on an SOS basis. I also take Omnitan H for my blood pressure every morning. A while back, my doctor suggested Montgress FX Montair LC when I have breathing issues. Recently, I got viral pneumonia and ended up in the hospital. I recovered but tested positive for Covid later on, though I didn't have any symptoms. After 14 days, my Covid test came back negative. Now, my doctor recommended Montair LC for 10 days and Foracort 200, 2 puffs twice daily. I'm kind of confused about which medicine I should stick to for my asthma in the long run. I usually get breathless when I try to climb stairs past the first floor. Can you help me figure this out?
continue foracort 200 2 puffs daily
