Frequent Wheezing With Itchy Eyes, Takes Levolin, Budecort Only Gives Temporary Relief. Permanent Relief ?

My daughter has wheezing very often with itching eyes. Typically she gets wheezing at night and in the morning hours. She was fine until she was 6 yrs when we returned to Bangalore from US. We have taken her to a number of doctors with no long term relief. Currently, we deal with her allergy symptoms with alerid (5 mg to 7.5mg) tablet. She is 8 and half years old. For wheezing we give her Levolin and Budecort inhaler (2 puffs) occasionally (~once in 2 days) . She does get temporary relief until the next day. Are these medicines alerid, Levolin and Budecort safe for her? Is there anything else can we do for her to ease the suffering? Please advice.

Hi, the wheezing is coming due to the allergy developed due to some thing, like cosmetics, soap, clothes, flowers which are new here. If find them and avoid for ever, she may not get the allergy.
If you cant find the allergen, you can try other medicines.
I to my patient with such allergy prescribe triamcinolone injection, 10 mg once in a month,if not controlled i prescribe montelecast, and levocitrizine combination. Thank you.
