Hi Rana,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. None of these medications can cause CNS depression and can be safely used.
2. Yes, all of them can reduce breathlessness.
3. These medications are adequate. Along with it breathing exercises and chest physiotherapy will be helpful.
4. Avoid smoking or going out in smog. Mild exercises and good nutritional diet rich in protein is essential.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
