Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Asthalin medication contains Salbutamol, which is known to help in ease of respiration by its bronchodilator effect.
It can be used for an infant of 1 month while having respiratory problems due to cough and cold. However, you should not use more than the dose what has been recommended.
Kindly follow the instructions given by your Pediatrician and do the follow-up as necessary.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
