Introduction
In general, immunomodulators for respiratory tract infections include medications such as polypeptide oral solution, transfer factor oral solution, thymopeptin enteric-coated tablets, pidotimod granules, and Jinshuibao capsules. These medications should be used only under medical supervision and are not recommended for self-administration. It is also advisable to engage in appropriate physical exercise, maintain a balanced diet, and receive vaccinations during treatment.

Under normal circumstances, immunomodulators for respiratory tract infections include medications such as spleen dipeptide oral solution, transfer factor oral solution, thymopeptide enteric-coated tablets, pidotimod granules, and Jinshuibao capsules. These medications should be used under medical supervision and should not be taken without a doctor's guidance. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Spleen Dipeptide Oral Solution

Spleen dipeptide in spleen dipeptide oral solution is a biologically active peptide with immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects. By oral administration, this solution provides spleen dipeptide that may help regulate immune system function and enhance the body's resistance to respiratory tract infections.

2. Transfer Factor Oral Solution

Transfer factor oral solution may contain transfer factors capable of transmitting immune information, helping to balance immune system activity and improve the body's immune resistance. This can aid in combating respiratory tract infections, alleviating symptoms, and promoting recovery.

3. Thymopeptide Enteric-Coated Tablets

Thymopeptide enteric-coated tablets have the effect of regulating the immune system and promoting the development of immune cells. Administered orally, these tablets provide thymopeptide that may help regulate immune system balance and strengthen the body's defense against respiratory tract infections.

4. Pidotimod Granules

Pidotimod granules are an immunomodulator whose mechanism of action involves inhibiting inflammatory processes and modulating immune cell function. Through oral administration, pidotimod may intervene in the immune response triggered by respiratory tract infections, reduce inflammatory symptoms, and promote tissue repair.

5. Jinshuibao Capsules

Jinshuibao capsules are a compound traditional Chinese medicine formulation containing multiple herbal ingredients. This medication has multiple effects including immunomodulation, anti-inflammation, and antiviral activity. It can regulate the immune system through various pathways, combat respiratory tract infections, and relieve symptoms.

During treatment, it is also recommended to engage in appropriate physical exercise, maintain a balanced diet, and receive vaccinations such as influenza and pneumococcal vaccines to actively prevent the occurrence of diseases.

How long until shortness of breath and coughing when speaking get better?
Recovery from shortness of breath and coughing during speech typically takes 1–2 weeks. If symptoms persist beyond 2 weeks or worsen, prompt medical evaluation is necessary to rule out organic diseases such as pneumonia or asthma. These symptoms are often triggered by respiratory tract infections, with congestion and swelling of the airway mucosa leading to impaired ventilation; the type of infection is a key influencing factor.

Can elderly people with respiratory tract infections consume light soy sauce?
Elderly individuals with underlying conditions such as hypertension or chronic kidney disease, or those with severe respiratory infection symptoms (such as high fever, sore throat, and difficulty swallowing), should avoid consuming light soy sauce. Light soy sauce has a high salt content, which may elevate blood pressure and increase the metabolic burden on the kidneys. During severe infections, a bland diet is recommended; irritant seasonings like soy sauce may stimulate the respiratory mucosa or impair digestive function, hindering recovery.

Is there a relationship between upper respiratory tract infections and formaldehyde?
If one is exposed to an environment with excessive formaldehyde levels (such as a newly renovated house or areas with substandard furniture) over a prolonged period, formaldehyde can continuously irritate the nasal and pharyngeal mucosa, leading to mucosal congestion and reduced resistance. Under these conditions, exposure to viruses or bacteria makes upper respiratory tract infections more likely, and after infection, mucosal inflammation tends to be more pronounced, resulting in worsened symptoms such as nasal congestion and sore throat.
