I've been taking cefixime okacet and doxyline for three days now, but I'm having a hard time breathing when I'm walking, and there's this wheezing sound. Is this normal, or should I be worried about these symptoms?

I've had a really bad cough for the last couple of days, and there's a wheezing sound when I breathe sometimes. I've been taking Rex cof syrup, but it hasn't helped at all. I did a COVID test, and thankfully, it's negative. I'm just wondering if there's any other medicine or treatment youd recommend for this cough?

I'm really worried about my grandfather who's dealing with bullous emphysema. He's been on medication for about 3 years, but he's developed a cough over the past week. In the past, the doctor prescribed cepodem xp 325. With the ongoing COVID situation, we're hesitant to visit any doctor in person, so I'm wondering if he could safely take that medication now, or perhaps something called cepox cv. He's currently taking Lmontus, Abflo, and Ambrolite Levo syrup. I've heard cepodem xp 325 isnt always effective against certain bacteria, and Im just not sure what the best course of action is right now. Can you provide some guidance?

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for about a week now, and it seems to get worse at night. I've tried using cough syrup, but it hasn't helped. What else can I do to get some relief?
