A member asked:
My wife is having asthma and it is not getting down even after medical treatment with azithromycin?

She may need inhaler: Call your wife's doctor, and speak to them about her situation. Let them know that the tablets are not working. See if they can offer her an inhaler, that might help her breathe easier. Also, look at her diet to make sure she's off dairy as that can produce more phlegm, until her symptoms abate. Make sure to check for food allergies.

See your doctor: Bronchoconstriction may not be caused by bacteria, and therefore would not be improved with antibiotics.
