Have Dizziness, Cough, Taking AB Phylline, Montek, Took Deriphyllin Injection. Have COPD, Seroflo, Butadine Inhaler When Difficult Breathing
Hi, I am 60 years old and have COPD. I have been taking butadiene inhaler whenever I have difficulty in breathing and seroflo once in the morning. Two weeks back, I had difficulty in breathing and took deriphyllin injection, when I was prescribed AB Phylline (Acebrophylline) - 100mg and Montek LC. I took 7 tablets of AB Phylline and 5 tablets of Montek. After the intake, I had symptoms of dizziness and severe cough.

Hi, dizziness may be due to some side effects of medicines. COPD is a serious disease if not treated well, so first of all increase your stamina slow and slow so that lung capacity will increase in your chest. Mind it this is not a treatment but supportive therapy. Montemac and levocetrizine both are anti-allergic so might produces some dizziness. If acerophyllin is not working properly change it after the advice of doc. Coffee is also a bronchodilator ,so in emergency it can be used for time being.Good luck
