Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  • According to your complaints, it could be an acute exacerbation of asthma.
  • You should take nebulization with Asthalin (Salbutamol) thrice daily and Budesonide twice daily. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines with their consent.
  • Depending on the other medicines which you are taking, an appropriate adjustment needs to be done.
  • You should consult your physician and get yourself clinically examined.
