I've been taking Fostex for 10 days, for a few days I've been waking up at night wanting to cough up mucus, then it takes my breath away, I can't catch my breath and I can't speak. Can I stop taking the drug? I would like to mention that she did not suffer from asthma before, I had a prolonged cough.

If there is an increase in breathing difficulties or an increase in wheezing, it is recommended to consult a doctor. You can also take advantage of teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

Also, in the event of symptoms such as increased mucus or increased cough, contact a doctor. This may indicate the development of pneumonia, for example. Pneumonia can be one of the side effects of the drug.
I also encourage you to report adverse drug reactions. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:

Discontinuation of the drug should be done after consultation with a doctor.
I have attached a link to check the availability of the drug and make a reservation at the pharmacy of your choice:
