Frequent cough

2023-08-11 11:29:31
Hello doctor my son 3yrs 6months had pneumonia last November n was hospitalized n got recovered, but from March he is having on n off coughs , so we consulted our paediatrician he said it's allergic cough n gave inhaler budecort n levolin since cough syrups dint work for him even after using for a week. Now from few months he was fine, now again from 3days he is having cough, I gave him chericof but still the cough dint stop. So as prescribed earlier , can I give him levolin inhaler. Will it cause any harm since I already used chericof syrup for 3days. N is this inhalers given only for asthma or even allergies, I have no history of asthma in my family, so worried.

No problem in using inhaler But once rule out allergic airway disease

your history mostly signifies obstructive airways disease of your child..its not just allergic..need to get some tests done first and then a proper management can be started..random cough syrups won't help..so get a consult with a pulmonologist
