Brief Answer:
consult pulmonologist first.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for your question on HCM.

Mezlap is having clonazepam. It is sedative drug and not used in asthma or similar symptoms. So please don't give this to her. It will cause more damage.

Rotacaps can be given. But I insist you to first take her to pulmonologist and get done
1. Chest x ray
2. PFT (pulmonary function test)

And diagnose her first. If it is asthma than regular treatment with inhaled bronchodilators is needed.

So at present don't give Mezlap, Rotacaps can be given , but better to consult pulmonologist first. Though I am not sure how bad is the breathing trouble.

Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wishing good health to your wife.
Thanks.
