Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you should stop bricarex syrup as it is expectorant and not cough supressant. So better to start cough supressant syrup.
Your Hemoglobin is also low (9.9).
So breathlessness can also seen due to low Hb level. So better to start iron tablet and iron rich food. Your target Hb should be more than 12. So start iron supplement.
Rest all drugs are good. You can take without worry.
Drink plenty of fluids and keep yourself hydrated.
