Dear Suman,
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. Combitide 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 asthma. This will also give protection from recurrent allergy.
3. Antihistamines like Cetrizine can also be used to provide symptomatic relief.
4. Need for anti biotics can 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.
