Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Unicontin is having
deriphyllin. Deriphyllin is oral
bronchodilator. It is useful in bronchitis and asthma.
But best treatment for these diseases is inhaled treatment.
Since you are not taking inhaled treatment, you are not improving completely.
So better to
consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
PFT will not only diagnose bronchitis and asthma, it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only.
You will definitely improve your inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or
salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or
fluticasone).
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
