Superhist 50 mg/2.5 mg/5 mg Syrup Health Feed

Asked for female, 26 years old from Delhi

HI, My grandmother is 95 years old female, suffering from shortness of breath, and cough, congestion is so much that while she gasps, she makes noises as if there is lot of cough and she is coughing also. She is doing it very frequently and she just keeps gasping and coughing, we gave her some arsenic liquid drops as suggested by the doctor, I have tried chest and cold tablets, and Dr. reddy's levodropropizine chlorpheniramine maleate syrup too, but no use. Can you please suggest the diet and what to avoid to help ease her coughing and gasping (perhaps it is shortness of breath) as soon as possible?

This probably is not the side effect of the medicine. But anyways once you have doubt better stop the medicine use. Keep checking if the child still behaves abnormally even in the absence of medicine.

Dear lybrate-user,
from what you describe your mother had 3 courses of antibiotics along with steroids and medication to help with her breathing. If her symptoms have significantly reduced, then very little will be achieved by getting an hrct, but if you feel it will put your mind at rest, you may get it done while noting that unnecessary radiation exposure is not good. It may be better to get her reassessed and treat any residual infection as cough can become a habit after some time and may...more

Cough could be due to acid reflux.

take hot saline gargles atleast 5 - 6 times a day, it will help to clear the throat .
steam inhalation also helps to clear respiratory passages.
sprinkling eucalyptus oil on the clothes and pillows while sleeping will help.
elevating the upper body and head by propping up with 2 - 3 pillows at night will help to relieve post nasal drip which worsens dry cough.
hot soup infused with ginger, tulsi, pepper should be taken.

You have become addicted. Also please do thyroid scan. Reduce your cough syrup intake slowly don't stop abruptly and do exercises. Go for long walks in the morning and evening. You have to find time for yourself.
