[|Human|] For the past couple of months ive had a lung and breathing problem, bad wheezing, unable to get air - not sure if it is allergies or asthma, symptoms are worsened at night, sometimes producing phlem when coughing (bright yellow / some brown) but generally not much mucus production, just clogged airways.In the past couple of days its been a lot worseLast night it was very bad, I got panicky and went to an urgent care centerThe doctor after listening to my lungs said they thought i most likely had an asthma attackThey then prescribed 60mg daily of prednisone for one week, and an albutoral inhaler.Yesterday I started amoxicillin (500mg capsules). I took one in the morning, and one at about 7PM before i went to the urgent care center, but did not take a dose last night as advised by the doctor.The doctor there told me (after prescribing the prednisone and inhaler) to discontinue the amoxicillin completelyI said i was coughing up bright yellow mucus with some brown, they said that doesnt mean infection, and just stop taking the amoxicillin, and start the prednisone and inhalerI am not sure if i should discontinue the antiobiotics, and if I will need to ween myself off of the prednisone, as ive heard there can be withdrawal symptoms.I currently have no insurance and dont have a doctor, and am very confused to what to do .. I just want to get better, and am not sure what the wisest decision isthanks for taking time out to read this
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of asthma attack is more likely. Most common cause for this is lung infection. You are also producing yellow sputum, so you should definitely continue amoxicillin (antibiotic) for total 5 days. Along with antibiotic, take prednisone and albuterol inhaler. No need to worry about with Chat Doctor.  Short term use of prednisone (less than 2 months) will not produce with
