Hi,
If your child has been diagnosed with asthma already then he would require bronchodilators like beta receptor agonists (salbutamol or terbutaline)and anticholinergics (ipratropium bormide or aminophylline) in MDI with spacer as child cannot synchronize himself.
You can give him nebulization with asthalin and budecort 3 times a day with 1 ampoule containing 2.5 ml of asthalin 5mg/2.5ml.
In addition, antihistamines and mast cell stabilizers are also have a useful in the treatment of asthma but for all this treatment you must see pediatrician rather than giving him just self treatment
