Suggest Treatment For Upper Respiratory Infection And Wheezing
Hello, I ve been taking Prednisone 20 mg since 11/12/16 for my asthma, along with Dulera and antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection. As of today, I still feel congested and hear some hackling wheezing. Is this normal while using these medication?
Exacerbation of asthma may take a few days. So if you are otherwise improving like if you don't have fever, and you don't have any shortness of breath then you may wait a few days for the same drugs.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mahboob Ur Rahman,
