Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. By what you quote i feel your kid is having viral associated wheeze. Medical literature says that steroids may not be of much help in viral associated wheeze. I suggest you stop Omnacortil and start using Monteleukast. Fever of 99.6 doesn't require paracetamol. Please do not worry. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
