My mom's been having some trouble with her breathing lately. There are times when she breathes with a noise. It doesn't happen all the time, but it's concerning. What could be causing this and what should we do about it?

View allI'm having trouble sleeping for the past week. When I first try to fall asleep, it suddenly feels like I can't breathe properly. I end up having to open my mouth just to get a good breath in. This has been happening every night for about half an hour right when I'm trying to sleep. I'm not stressed or anything, so I doubt it's anxiety. It's weird because I only notice this issue when I'm lying down to sleep. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
take steam inhalation half an hour before sleep.

I'm dealing with COPD and my bosses are pretty worried about me using paint. Do you think it's safe for me to use low odor, water-based paints without having any issues? I'm feeling like it should be okay, but I'd love your thoughts.

I'm having trouble finding the anti-TB medicine I got from the government hospital at the local pharmacy. It has Rifampicin 150mg, Isoniazid 75mg, Pyrazinamide 400mg, and Ethambutol Hydrochloride 275mg. Can you recommend any alternative names for this medication? I'm a bit concerned and could use some guidance.
You can try asking your doctor or pharmacist for an alternative brand with the same composition of Rifampicin, Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, and Ethambutol. Some common alternatives include **Rifagut**, **Rifinah**, or **4-FDC**, but its important to get a recommendation based on your specific treatment needs.
