Suggest Treatment For Persistent Asthma
My daughter is 18 months old and is suffering from asthma symptoms. Last time when she had severe problem breathing, pediatrician has advised to use Kidpred syrup - 5ml for 3days, Montair granules 1 sachet for 30 days and Inhaler: Budate 100mg, 2 times with 12 hour interval, Salbair 3 times with 8 hours interval. We followed all suggestion but discontinued Montair granules after 15 days. Our baby is again suffering from severe cold, cough and asthma kind of symptoms now a month after previous episode. Is it suggested to use the same medication again as used earlier?

Hi,
Since your child was alright after using the treatment, you should adhere to your doctor's advice.
It's very difficult to diagnose as asthma at this age. But meantime proper treatment to prevent any symptoms will help in intellectual and physical development. So adherence is must.
This may be commo cold or due to asthma. For asthma you can continue montelukast granules once daily and budate. This will help in preventing any further symptoms and salbair to relieve symptoms.
I hope this information helps you.
Feel free to ask for any further queries.
Regards
