If your son needs to use Asthalin rotacap more than twice a week or he has to awake in midnight due to cough I would suggest you to use Budecort daily.

Using Asthalin on frequent basis means child's asthma is not properly controlled.

Hence I would suggest you to use Budecort (which controls asthma) daily and Asthalin (which relieves an acute attack) when required despite using Budecort.

Regarding safety of Asthalin, too much use of asthalin may cause tremors, palpitation, etc. and rather it is not desirable.

Hope this will be helpful to you. Wish your son the best health.
