Tag: Bronchitis
Bronchitis is an inflammatory condition of the bronchial tubes, typically caused by viruses or bacteria. It presents with coughing, chest discomfort, fatigue, and sometimes fever. Acute bronchitis usually resolves on its own within a few weeks, while chronic bronchitis may require long-term management. Common medications for symptom relief include over-the-counter cough suppressants like dextromethorphan, expectorants such as guaifenesin to loosen mucus, and pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen for discomfort. Additionally, inhalers containing bronchodilators like albuterol or corticosteroids may be prescribed for severe cases. These medications are available for purchase online without a prescription.
