I'm wondering if it's really important to carry an inhaler in my pocket when I leave the house, especially if I sometimes get asthma attacks. Can I just keep it with me for emergencies when I'm out?

I'm currently taking Montair LC, Levoflox 500, and Pan40 for a lower respiratory tract infection. I'm wondering if it's okay to also take vitamin tablets, specifically DE, C, and B12, alongside these medications. Would that cause any issues, or is it safe to mix them?

yes you can take

I'm experiencing this weird thing where every time I breathe, there seems to be a sound coming from my lungs, and I start coughing non-stop. Plus, I can't seem to get a good night's sleep because of it. Do you think there's something wrong with my lungs, or could it be something else?

Patient is advised pulmonary function test (PFT)and a chest x-ray .

My mom had some fluid taken out from her lungs and the lab tests said it's not TB. But she still has this fever in the evenings, sweats a lot at night, can't really catch her breath well, and her heart's racing. Could these be signs of pneumonia or maybe even TB?

these are symptoms of tuberculosis
