Is Pulmacort Sufficient To Treat Asthma And Cough In A Child?
I have a 4 year old daughter and she has asthma and is coughing quite a bit. We went to the doctor and they told me to do pulmacort breathing treatment twice a day and we have been. Is there anything else we can do and how long do we wait before going back to the doctor?

if the asthma is getting controlled by pulmicort you can continue twice a day
if it is uncontrolled even with that you can seek advise
it is safe to use these in children according to need and requirement
as the child grows the childhood asthma recover in many according to my experiences
