Hello doctor,

I am 33 years old. My weight is 147.71lb, and my height is 5.4 inches. I have difficulty in breathing occasionally in a day. Already I have this problem and the doctor gave me Asthalin and I am using it. It will be seasonal and now for the past two days, I am having this. I am using the same Asthalin twice 2 puffs.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your concern. According to your statement, you have been suffering from shortness of breath for the last three days. You have allergic rhinitis too. According to your description, you are a patient of pre-asthma or asthma with allergic rhinitis. You can go for a reversibility test to exclude asthma. As you are suffering from allergic rhinitis, you should avoid dust, pollens, mite, smoke, any type of allergens or irritants. Along with your Asthalin inhaler, you can take Fexofenadine and Montelukast for your respiratory distress.

Patient's Query

Thank you doctor,

Do I need to take Fexofenadine tablet? Can I use Asthalin itself?
