What Are The Side Effects Of Budecort And Does Mucous Regulators Have More Side Effects Than Nebulized Alternatives?
In the past 6 months My son has had multiple instances of bronchitis related issues where he wheezes and then his Paed puts him on Bricarex A + Ambrodil XP with Budecort 0.5 + Levolin 0.3 nebulization. The condition does improve a lot after 5-6 days of active treatment using this combo. Wanted to know: a) The side effects of Budecort (Budesonide) (Cortocosteroid type inhaler for 3-4 yr old. b) Whether Oral expectorant and bronchodilators or mucous regulators have more side effects and dangerous than nebulized alternatives.

Hi,
It is my pleasure to help you,
As your sons condition improve with this symptoms that suggests you that potential benefits outweigh potential risks.
The mucous regulators are very much essential along with the nebulization to keep the respiratory tract healthy.
Budecort inhaler is useful in prophylactic and maintenance therapy of asthma.
On prolong use of Budecort nebulization it may leads to Fungal infection in mouth & throat.
But benefits of these drugs are enormous in treating this type of condition.
Thank you.
