General & Family Physician,  's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Coughing at night and wheezing are seen in asthma.

Asthma treatment involves: (1)avoiding any known triggers

(2)use of inhalers.

There are preventers (inhalers that prevent asthma attacks ) and relievers (inhalers that are used when asthma attacks occur).

Their use would reduce your symptoms.

Your GP would be able to start you on the appropriate inhalers.

I hope this helps
