Hi,

I went through the reports. Yes, the prescribed medicines is okay except the first one, i am not able to make out. Can you please spell it for me. To improve weakness, she can be given multivitamins. Precautions include protection from cold (weather or drinks), dust, items that are prone to increase wheeze such as chocolate, lemon etc. She can have other fruit juices.

I hope this answered your query.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Okay, L Cin is an antibiotic. Betaloc 50 is for BP as well. So take it as your doctor has prescribed. Amtas and Betaloc will help reduce her BP. You can take wysolone, as it will suppress her allergic reaction leading to wheezing. For wheeze, it is best. It will not affect BP but she may have gastritis so let her have plenty of fluids and curds if possible.

I hope this answered your query.
