Brief Answer:
Probably Childhood allergy,needs to continue medication as of now.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

I understand your query and concern.

Your child is having Childhood allergy whose allergic sensitization occurs in childhood.

As the child grows these allergic episodes will reduce due to decreased sensitization to the allergen.

You need to use Anti allergic syrup when there is acute episodes.

Stopping of the medication will worsen the condition.

So in the due course of time once the allergic episodes decrease,tapering of medication will be done.

Avoid contact with pets,dusty environment.

As of now,Continue medication as prescribed by your doctor.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you.

You need to continue Relent and Montair 5 mg.

Antibiotic is currently not prescribed in your medications.

Only antiallergics and anticough medications are prescribed.

It will not harm your child as of now,since one year is not a significantly lengthy period.

Yes you need to give nebulization with the medicine.

You need to stop milk only if she reports allergic symptoms with milk intake.
