Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of allergic rhinitis and allergic bronchitis is more likely.
So along with current medications, you should take
1. Inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).
2. Combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast).
3. Intranasal spray containing steroid (fluticasone).
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
