Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic Concerning your premature child presenting a history of sneezingcold and cough I will suggest that this arises due to low immunity against external infection due to viral or bacteria
Regarding a diagnosis of ashma by your physician following prescription of Esiflo and monitero I will suggest you suspend the drug at the moment pending your appointment with a paediatric pulmonologist for expert clinical evaluation and adequate prescription guidelines
I hope this helps Regards
