Hello dear,
Asthma is caused due to broncho-constriction (obstruction of smaller airway passages) which is indicative of Hyper-responsiveness of air passages.
Management consists of:
1. Asthalin inhaler- provide symptomatic relief by causing broncho-dilation (dilating the smaller airway passages, relieving the obstruction & increasing airflow to lungs)
So, you can use it whenever you are having an acute attack.
2. Montelukast preparations- used as a maintenance therapy to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies & asthma.
3. Antihistamines like Cetrizine can also be used to provide symptomatic relief.
4. Need for anti biotics (like mox 500) arise if there is a secondary infection. But this should be taken only under the guidance of your Physician.
5. Also protect yourself from exposure to cold, dust or other allergens.
Wish you a good health.
Take care.
