How To Treat Cold And Cough In A 3 Years Old Child?

hello doctor..my 3yrs 1 month old daughter is suffering from cold -cough.We consulted a pediatrician on 3.10.12 who said cough is there in her chest..and prescribed Levolin inhaler 2 puffs in 6hr interval . But it is a very tough task to give her inhaler as she is feeling fear from that inhaler instrument(with baby mask)..sometimes vomiting little . But we are still continuing/trying to continue with that dose. Today evening she had frequent dry cough. While sleeping now coughing is going on frequently . So what should we do now.

Hi....your pediatrician is probably right and I think what he meant is a wheeze. The management of wheeze at present is Levolin inhaler and is the best.
Even for this cough now, I suggest you give the same Levolin inhaler as advised by your pediatrician.
