My mother-in-law has been using a Duolin inhaler and albuterol sulfate 90mcg while in the USA, but now that we're in India, I can't find albuterol here. Can she use an Asthalin inhaler 100mcg instead? I'm a bit worried about making the right switch.

View allI'm really concerned about something and I was hoping to get some advice. I've been inhaling steam directly from the stove for the last 45 days, about three times a day. Initially, doctors said steam wouldn't cause harm, but now my health is declining. I've even damaged my lungs, and it's been really painful. Could the steam be the reason? I feel like it's affecting me a lot and I'm worried. What should I do?

My friend was diagnosed with TB in his throat, not in his lungs and he's just got one more month left to finish his six-month treatment. What should he keep in mind after he's done with the medication cycle? Do we need to do any tests to make sure he's completely cleared of TB? He's moved to a new place and can't get in touch with his regular doctor.
