Chest & Breathing Problems
Hemoptysis when to admit?
My father had hemoptysis of 10ml/day once in a month from past three months with daily cough, but when consulted doctor, he said it is due to cavity from post tb and expected, he gave tabs to reduce cough and said when hemoptysis is more than 25/ml per day, admit immediately. Why is this suggested?

Drug interaction
I've suffered from allergy for 7-8 years which causes runny nose and sneezing.I usually take montina l/citrizine for it.I never suffered breathing problems due to it but for the last 3-4 weeks, I've been suffering from difficulty in breathing and cough.
To counter difficulty in breathing I'm taking montina l but today since I was also suffering from cough/runny nose,I also took sinarest.
So my question is,is it safe to take montina l with sinarest at the same time?
