Pulmonologist 's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Bronchitis needs inhaled treatment.
Inhaled treatment is best for bronchitis.
So along with antibiotic, you need inhaled bronchodilator and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS).
For allergy, oral combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast) drugs is also beneficial.
So better to consult pulmonologist and discuss about starting these drugs along with antibiotic.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
