Hi,
If you are suffering from acute bronchitis then you would require antibiotics (quinolones or macrolides or cephalosporins or amoxicillin with clavulanic acid) and bronchodilators like beta agonists (salbutamol or terbutaline),anticholinergics like ipratropium bromideor aminophylline with nebulization and steam inhalation.
Asmol is a salbutamol bronchodilator and it can be used in tratment of bonchospasm.if your brething gets worsened after taking it then ii could be due to allergy to that particular drug.
Consult your pulmonologist for further advise.
This all above might have to be given for at least 7 to 10 days to resolve the symptoms.
your abdominal pain could be due to your breathing difficulty leading to rise in intra-abdominal pressure.
So,don't worry about that.
