Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Your symptoms can be due to bronchitis or asthma. The fact that you get relief when you take Montek LC favors this. We would need to perform a spirometry ( pulmonary function test) to ascertain the cause of your symptoms. In my opinion, inhaled corticosteroids like fluticasone or beclomethasone would prove to be useful in you and would prevent your symptoms all together. I would suggest the following as well:
a. Stay away from dust, smoke and air pollution
b. Try and identify what triggers your symptoms
c. Keep a pot of boiling water in your room. This humidifies the air and will help relieve your symptoms
d. Change the pillow covers every day and wash your bed linen in hot, boiling water.

Hope this helps
