Suggest Remedy For Cough During Asthmatic Bronchitis

I am almost 37 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child. My c-section is scheduled for a week and a half from now,and I have come down with Asthmatic Bronchitis. (I get it every other year) I don't smoke,I'm not allergic to anything, How do I treat this to try and get rid of it before my daughter's birth. My OB/GYN is out of town until Sunday,he is my primary and therefore cannot refer me to a regular doctor. He also prefers his patients to not go to a regular doctor,but to deal with him. What can I do or take to alleviate the coughing. The drainage I can deal with. The cough hurts. Thank You.

Hello
As you are pregnant ( 37 weeks ) and having asthmatic bronchitis .
You are having severe cough with post nasal discharge ( drainage ) .
When such type of patient visit in my clinic I advise them to take MONTELEUKAST+ BAMBUTEROL tablet one / day .
Also take some ambroxol syrup to facilitate phlegm from lungs .
As all these medicine are safe for you and your baby .
However note one thing that bambuterol sometimes causes mild tremor but these are for time being , so need not to worry.
Hope this will help you.
Good luck for both of you.
