What Is The Treatment For A Cold?

I am a border line asthamatic and have been prescribed Asthalin inhaler for use as and when required. I am suffering from a cold now and my family physician has asked me to take Asthalin syrup 3 times a day. I would like to know if this is a good strategy.

Hi,
Having cold it might aggravate asthma problem due to infection.
So it is advisable to go for oral Asthalin syrup to prevent bronchospasm.
Once there is more broncho-spasm you might require Asthalin Inhaler.
Ok and take care.
