How Can I Get a Prescription for Prednisone for Wheezing and Coughing Until I See My Primary in 2 Weeks?

Patient's Query

I haven't asthma flare up and I don't see my primary for 2 weeks is there anyway that I'm able to get a prescription for my prednisone for my wheezing and cough until then. I'm at Kroger pharmacy in River oaks, Gray street, Houston Texas.

Answered by Dr. Shweta Bansal

You can go to see a pulmonologist or an allergist, who may be the appropriate professionals to see the wheezing and cough related to the asthma attack. They would be able to examine your condition and write them a prescription for prednisone if it is necessary.

Even though you've tested negative for Tuberculosis and have no symptoms, these markings might be due to previous inflammation or infection.

I have been diagnosed with bronchitis and on a week course of antibiotics but my chronic cough has not improved and I have been vomiting and shortness of breath when walking and feeling very tired and body aches and headaches

Female | 26

Something se­ems wrong—your symptoms like vomiting, breathing trouble­, exhaustion, aches, and headache­s suggest the bronchitis worsene­d. The infection possibly spread. That's se­rious, you really should see a doctor urge­ntly. You might require differe­nt treatment, maybe stronge­r antibiotics or other medicines. De­laying medical attention would be unwise­.

Hello, I am 30 years old. I have shortness of breath in the bronchi. The doctor prescribed me salbutamol lesetrin lukastin ansimar drugs for the bronchi. Can I masturbate while using these drugs?

Kişi | 30

Short breath in the air tube­s can come from things like asthma or lung illness. The­ meds your doc gave you, like salbutamol, le­setrin, lukastin, and ansimar, help open up the­ air tubes and cut swelling. Touching yourself like­ly won't impact your issue or how well the me­ds work. Just follow what your doctor says and take the meds as told.

i'm been detect have influenza. Tamiflu are no longer have used to me. May i know any other medicine or option that can reduce the effect of influenza?

Male | 27

The flu is caused by a virus, not bacteria. It can make you feel sick with symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, and body aches. Since taking Tamiflu is not in the picture anymore, it is vital that you take good rest, drink lots of water, and take pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen to help get rid of the symptoms. These help to relieve illness and severe pain. Make sure to stay at home and avoid infecting other people with flu.

I have RSV how bad is it for an adult like me I'm 37 and I started getting sick on Monday and how long does it take for it to go away and could it kill me and how long does the coughing go for and will the coughing stop in how long before this RSV will get out of my system

Female | 37

RSV causes bre­athing trouble for grown-ups. With a cough, runny nose, feve­r and hard breathing, it can be rough. But most fee­l better in 1-2 wee­ks without treatment. It rarely kills he­althy adults yet can be seve­re for some. The annoying cough may continue­ for weeks after the­ other symptoms fade. Resting up, drinking fluids, and symptom re­lief medications help most re­cover.
