Thanks for asking
I gone through your question. Your 3 year old kid is having running nose for over 2 months and last three day he is coughing . he has been prescribed duolin and budecort. you worried about duration of therapy.
There is no side effect if you give nebulization more then 2 min. The medicine by nebulization go to lung , negligible part go to blood , so no side effect.
the other alternate of nebulization which is equally effective is inhalation by MDI with spacer and mask. this is portable also.
hope i answer your question.
wish you healthy family life
