Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

Asthma is very well controlled by inhalers and there is nothing to worry about it. In fact inhalers provide very low doses compared to oral intake. Your child should be monitored and probably he can be weaned off the medicines if the asthma is seasonal.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your son an early recovery.

Regards,
