Hi,

Elevated eosinophil count may be due to allergy or tropical eosinophilia. It may also aggravate the allergy or episodes of bronchial asthma. Use bronchodilators, avoid cool drinks and freeze water.

Use bronchodilators, a three week course of Diethylene Carbamazepine may useful to reduce tropical eosinophilia. How much is your eosinophil count. Please repeat absolute eosinophil count and message me.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
