Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) again.
PFT will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment of bronchitis is based on severity only.
You may need additional bronchodilators (inhaled as well as oral).
Most common cause for bronchitis is infection. So anti are also important.
Other drugs like mucolytic, expectorant and antioxidant are also useful in uncontrolled bronchitis.
So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
