Posted on Thu, 30 Jun 2022
Question: My wife was having Dry cough almost 15-20 days back and since last 2 weeks which has cold and cough. Doctor here gave her Antibiotic to use for 5 days. Cough/cold did not get cured. Yesterday she went to Urgent care near by and got chest X-ray. Doctor said that X-ray looks good and as it is not bacterial, she is asked to stop using Antibiotic.

Doctor prescribed the inhaler and Steroid tablets to use for 5 days. she started using the inhaler(but not steroid tablets) but cough did not get better since yesterday.

Can she also use Inhaler and also the liquid medicine "Ambrolite D+ syrup " (Pic attached) ?

Please find the attached medical report from doctor yesterday and "Ambrolite D+ syrup" and Inhaler ?

Hi,

Yes, she should definitely start steroid tablet and syrup.
She is having acute bronchitis. So this will take 1-2 weeks for complete recovery.
So continue inhaler, start steroid tablet and syrup.
Also tell her to do warm water gargles and steam inhalation 4-5 times a day.

Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your wife. Thanks.

Doctor,
Thanks so much for your response.

here at hospital, doctor was only suspecting that it could be "bronchitis", Doctor was not really sure about it.

Even if it is not bronchitis, is it good for her use inhaler and use syrup and Steroid tablets? Can she take all 3 at once in the night ? and inhaler in the morning?

Thanks
