Stop asthakind nebuliser after 5 days. ASTHALIN nebuliser to be used in acute exacerbation only four times a day for 5 days. MDI BUDECORT to be continued till 3 months twice a day. After 3 months it will be decided whether to taper the dose and stop or increase the dose depending on acute exacerbation episodes. Thank you
