What is the best nebulizer medicine for cold?

Serflo 125 synchrobreathe is good but you need something more. You may want to try using Budecort respules with your nebulizer. These will help reduce any swelling inside your air passages which should make them wider and easier to breathe through. Do not forget about following the prescribed dosage exactly as instructed. But do visit your doctor before starting the medication.

Can I Take Creatine and Whey Protein with TB Medication?

You are right in saying that you have certain concerns regarding the application of creatine and whey protein while undergoing tuberculosis treatment. Normally, creatine and whey protein supplements are safe when taken safely, but in your scenario, you should be more cautious. TB treatment would require specific medicines to help do their job. The consumption of creatine and whey protein may interfere with the absorption of these drugs, or in other words, decrease the strength of drugs. It is also crucial that you do not deviate from the exact set of actions the medic tells you to because, in your place, your health is the top priority. Once the chemo treatment is done, you might consider the idea of taking these supplements as directed by your pulmonologist

Why does my breath cease when I cough?

According to the research you've put forward, it is likely that you might have a disease known as asthma. Wheezing can occur during a cough when asthmatic patients have trouble breathing. This is a result of opened, inflamed, and tightened air tubes. In addition to coughing, other symptoms may include wheezing and chest tightness. One of the ways to cope is by staying away from irritants such as smoke or dust.
