1)Sorry to say but Asthakind should be avoide in covid patients as it is a sympathomimetic drug and it may have some negative effect on heart
2) Azithromycin has no proven beneficial effect in management of covid
Next Steps
I would suggest you consult a pulmonologist to discuss on starting oral inhalational steroids due to dry cough
