Report

I am 23 year old female. I'm known asthmatic since childhood and had been mild and not frequent. Recently I contracted covid 3 months ago and from day-10, asthma attacks started everyday. I used seroflo 250 twice a day for almost 15 days. Then I was put on oral steroids for 10 days, preventive inhaler and montemac lc by doctor. Despite the use of oral steroids, it was persistent. Then I was advised to use budesonide inhalers and montemac lc everyday. Now its been 3 months, if ever I miss montemac lc/inhalers even a single day, I feel shortness in my breath and so much of pressure/tightness in my chest. Recently montemac lc is replaced with montair fx because of dizziness problem. My questions are 1) how long do I need to take montair fx? Is there any remedy? 2) since its been 3 months post covid, is taking covid vaccine advisable? If so what kind of precautions do I take?

Yes you can go for vaccination. 1. Do saline gargles daily.
2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also.
3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected.
4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration...more

Three leukotriene modifiers are approved to treat asthma:
montelukast (Singulair)

zileuton (Zyflo)

Nebulisation is the gold standard treatment

Dear
World over the treatment for asthma is inhalers. Also if. Your asthma has been controlled well for 20 yrs with stable lung function, you must continue inhalers. However it is advisable to seek a chest physician opinion with latest spirometry. You can contact me in private clinic.
