Long term use of tablets
My mother is taking abphylline and telekast L last let's for allergy. Once she stops taking the medicine dry cough persists for her but while taking medicine she feels fine and better. I'm concerned if she can take the medicines on a long term basis and also if there is any side effects of these medicines. She is feeling sleepy whenever she takes the medicines.
