Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
Definitely you can take avil for cold while you are on anti asthma drugs. The tab avil is nothing but an antihistamine which also helps to reduce the cold because of the cold.
It also reduces the broncoconstriction and improves the symptoms of the asthma. It has a synergistic action along with the anti asthma drugs.
You can take this medicine withgout any problem.
Thank you.
