Bronchitis. On Adderall, Ginger Tea. Suggest Anti Bacterial, Anti Inflamatory, Or Bronchodialators?
Hi, im treating myself for bronchitis that flares up multiple times a year. Im finally turning to antibiotics to kick its ass and I wanted to know if its ok to mix smz-tmp with adderall , ginger, green tea, n-Acetylcystine and a multivitamin . Im thinking any other anti bacterial, anti inflamatory, or bronchodialators would be nice too, but im having trouble finding a full list of known interactions with the antibiotics. Are there any expectorants or herbs I should specifically avoid with this?

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
Since you have been having recurrent episodes of bronchitis, it is better to have a proper medical evaluation in order to ascertain the cause. It is likely that you may be having an underlying allergic cause or an asthma which may the the reason for the recurrent flaring up.
Secondly, it is always better to take antibiotics under the prescription and advise of a doctor, after having a proper physical examination. The doctor needs to determine which antibiotic is appropriate for you and you also need to be under monitoring for any possible side effects. So, please see a doctor for a detailed evaluation and further treatment.
Wish you all the best.

Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
