Hello,
Thanks for the concern. According to history you suffer from Asthma and now you are taking Tablet Bicor 10mg.Tablet bicor contains Bisoprolol and Bisoprolol is contraindicated in patients having asthma. So the symptoms may be due to bicor tablet. And you should stop taking bicor and replace it with other drugs under strict guidance of cardiologist.
So consult your treating cardiologist immediately and start treatment accodingly.
