Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Cough is due to asthma and not due to medication.
What the doctor suggested is quite OK.
You should give nebulisation more frequently to control cough.
You may avoid any triggering factor if identified.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
