Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history.

If you are feeling hard to breath in spite of using asthalin, in my opinion you should start daily montelukast and inhaled corticosteroids at least for next 2-3 months. Depending upon your response, the drugs may be reduced afterwards.

I would also suggest you regular breathing exercises. Please stay away from smoke, air pollution and dust exposure as much as possible.

Hope this will be helpful to you.

Wish you the best of the health.

Should you have any query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Regards.

Hello
Presuming that you are having bronchial asthma and taking asthalin inhaler .
As you know that dust , mite , pests ( cockroaches ), pollen , molds , sudden change of temperature , hay , fine dusting fiber are certain predisposing factors causing asthma . so if possible avoid .
When such patient visit I prescribe montelukast + bambuterole tablet once or twice in day according to severity of symptoms and condition of patient .
Hot coffee and steam inhalation also help.
Hope this information will help you.
