Hello,
It is safe to use both predcort and aeroflux togetehr.
Predcort DS is safe if used for just 3 to 5 days. She may have an increased appetite, abdominal pain. Give the predcort after food. Short duration of steroids are not a problem.
If she has very frequent cough disturbing her sleep, she may benefit from inhaled steroids such as budesonide apart from levosalbutamol inhaler if she has a wheeze. Ask your doctor to do an asthma scoring and proceed accordingly. Another thing to rule out in prolonged cough is tuberculosis
Hope this helps, take care
Regards,
Dr. Vaishnavi
