Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Night time wheezing, coughing in child is mostly due to asthma.
Best treatment of asthma is inhaled treatment.
So better to consult pulmonologist and start inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).
Avoid dust, smoke, pollens, chemical fumes etc.
Usually childhood asthma resolve after the age of 14-15 years.
Better not to give Sidha medicine.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your child. Thanks.
