Suggest Medication For Chest Congestion, Wheezing, Dry Cough And Breathlessness With No Help From Augmentin And Derrifillin

My 17 year old son is suffering from chest congestion,whizzing, and dry cough for the last 6 days. He took Augumentin 625mg, Derrifillin300 and cough syrup twice a day during this period, but no relief found. He feel it difficult even to sleep due to breathlessness. Please advice me what I have to do ? Is Asthaline syrup/tab can heal his breathlessness.

hi.You must have consulted your dr.and taken antibiotic. If still no releif, it is better to get your son nebulise with Duolin and budecort respules round the clock after consulting with your dr. in place of oral bronchodilators like deriphylline and asthalin.Once controlled he can be put on inhalers regularly for some time, which are much safer and effective with no systemic side effects.
Thanks.
