What Is The Treatment For Wheezing, Cough And Phlegm In A 4 Month Old?
Hi, my 4 mnth old daughter is wheezing, coughs, flem in chest and cnnot take it out. Our doc hs prescribed levolin and budecort 100 thru a spacer and an oral corticosteriod alongwith tixylix. I hope the medication cures her. It seems bronchiotis ans nt sure if its asthma or allergy. She ws nebulized also before we put her onto the spacer. Kindly advise

Hi
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
You need to continue budecort for atleast 6 months without fail
It is safe to continue the current medicines
Not all wheezers become asthmatic in kids.
Many lose their wheezing , but needs regular followup
Wishing your child speedy recovery and good health
