Hello,
Bilocar (Bisoprolol) may can cause bronchial spasms in few patients. you may take alternate anti hypertensive medication in case of Bisoprolol usage. Symbicort may not cause chest discomfort unless you're allergic to it. Use water vapor inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
