What Causes Acute Bronchitis With Breathing Restrictions?

I have acute bronchitis and don't seem to be getting any better. my breathing feels restricted, i have already finished my antibiotics. I also take cymbalta for depression and adderall for ADD. I'm wondering if the adderall could be a partial cause of the inflammation of my lungs for maybe a combination of the adderall and cymbalta?

Pulmonologist 's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Main treatment of bronchitis is bronchodilators. You are not taking any bronchodilator so not improving.
No need to worry for Cymbalta, Adderall side effects. They are not known to cause inflammation.
So better to consult pulmonologist and get done prescription for inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol).
Don't worry, you will be alright with these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
