I've been dealing with this persistent cough coming from deep in my lungs for 12 minutes straight, around 56 times a day. There's no fever, and it's not a wet cough. I went to a physician who ran a chest X-ray, blood reports, and urine test, but everything came back normal. They suggested I take Pantoprazole and Domperidone, Doxycycline, Diethylcarbamazine (100mg Hetrazan), and Levocetirizine with Montelukast (Montecope) for 5 days. After that, the doctor told me to keep going with Hetrazan and Montecope for another 10 days. Should I be concerned about something underlying that wasn't picked up in the tests? Is there anything else I should consider doing or asking about?

I'm currently on my sixth month of TB treatment, but I've been having this cough for about 10-15 days now. I went to the doctor and he said it's nothing serious, just continued with my usual meds like Rcinex. He also gave me something for allergies like Allegra and some antibiotics. But I saw on my X-ray report from the radiologist that it says "bronchiovascular marking is prominent in bilateral lung field" and I'm wondering if I should be worried about this?

I'm really struggling with my bronchial asthma. Lately, I've been coughing non-stop, day and night. I've been using my inhalers, levolin viola and Airtec FB 200, which used to help, but now they dont seem to be doing anything for my wheezing and coughing. I only get this issue during the winter months. What can I do to get some relief?

I'm really worried about my dad's asthma. He's been using Serollo 250 for the past 5 years because his asthma specialist recommended it. However, lately, every time we get a new one, it seems defective and isn't helping much. His asthma symptoms are actually getting worse, and Im really concerned. Is there an alternative to Serollo 250 that we might be able to find at local stores? I've attached a pic of the product if that helps.
