Good Day
You probably are suffering from Asthma for which you need to also be on inhalers. Just taking Telekast-L will not help. You can continue taking it but it makes the throat dry to some extent which can also add to the cough. You must consult your Doctor regarding the requirement for inhaled bronchodilator for use since you have wheezing, then you can reduce Telekast-L as well.
